Proverbs 16:19-21

The Voice

¹⁹ It is better to be humble and live among the poor,
    than to divide up stolen property with the proud.
²⁰ Those devoted to instruction will prosper in goodness;
    those who trust in the Eternal will experience His favor.
²¹ The wise at heart have a reputation for understanding;
    pleasant words make the lips more persuasive.
