Proverbs 18:12

One who is slack in his work

is brother to him who is a master of destruction.

The LORD’s name is a strong tower:

the righteous run to him, and are safe.

The rich man’s wealth is his strong city,

like an unscalable wall in his own imagination.

He who answers before he hears,

that is folly and shame to him.

A man’s spirit will sustain him in sickness,

but a crushed spirit, who can bear?

The heart of the discerning gets knowledge.

The ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
