Proverbs 16:17-19
The Voice
17 The highway of the just bypasses evil;
those who watch where they’re going protect their lives from sin.
18 Pride precedes destruction;
an arrogant spirit gives way to a nasty fall.
19 It is better to be humble and live among the poor,
than to divide up stolen property with the proud.
Proverbs 16:17-19
New International Version
17 The highway of the upright avoids evil;
those who guard their ways preserve their lives.(A)
19 Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed
than to share plunder with the proud.
