9 He also that is slothful in his workis brother to him that is a great waster.
10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower:the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city,and as a high wall in his own conceit.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty;and before honor is humility.
13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it,it is folly and shame unto him.
14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity;but a wounded spirit who can bear?
15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge;and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
