Proverbs 18:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² If you become proud, something will soon destroy you.
    But if you are humble, you will soon receive honour.
¹³ Listen carefully before you answer.
    If you answer too quickly, you will be ashamed like a fool.
¹⁴ When someone is ill, his spirit will keep him strong.
    But if his spirit has lost hope, he cannot stay strong.
