10 A tower of strength is the name of Yahweh; into him the righteous will run and be safe.
11 The wealth of the rich is his strong city, and like a wall, it is high in his imagination.
12 In the presence of destruction, the heart of a man will be haughty, but in the presence of honor, humble.
13 He who returns a word before he will hear, folly itself belongs to him as well as shame.
14 The spirit of a man will endure his sickness, but a broken spirit, who may bear it?
15 An intelligent mind will acquire knowledge, and the ear of the wise will seek knowledge.
16 The gift of a person will open doors for him, and before the great, it gives him access.
