Proverbs 16:19-23

¹⁹Better is it to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide spoil with the proud.

²⁰He that reflecteth on a matter wisely will find happiness; and whoso trusteth in the Lord—happiness attend him!

²¹The wise in heart is called a man of understanding; and the sweetness of the lips increaseth information.

²²Intelligence is a source of life unto its possessor; but the correction of fools is folly.

²³The heart of the wise maketh his mouth intelligent, and upon his lips he increaseth information.
