10 God’s name is a place of protection—good people can run there and be safe.
11 The rich think their wealth protects them;they imagine themselves safe behind it.
12 Pride first, then the crash,but humility is precursor to honor.
13 Answering before listeningis both stupid and rude.
14 A healthy spirit conquers adversity,but what can you do when the spirit is crushed?
15 Wise men and women are always learning,always listening for fresh insights.
16 A gift gets attention;it buys the attention of eminent people.
