Proverbs 18:11-13
Darby Translation
11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his own imagination.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty; and before honour [goeth] humility.
13 He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and shame unto him.

New International Version
11 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city;(A)
they imagine it a wall too high to scale.

but humility comes before honor.(B)

that is folly and shame.(C)
