Proverbs 16:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ Honest people follow a straight road that keeps them away from evil things.
    If you want to keep your life safe, watch where you are going.
¹⁸ If you are proud, you will soon come to an end.
    Anyone who boasts will soon fall down.
¹⁹ You may be humble and have poor people as your friends.
    But that is better than if you have proud friends
    who give you things that they have robbed from others.
