Proverbs 18:11

God's Word

A rich person’s wealth is his strong city and is like a high wall in his imagination.

See the chapter Copy

The rich person’s wealth is ⌞his⌟ strong city. Poverty ruins the poor.

Riches are of no help on the day of fury, but righteousness saves from death.

Before destruction a person’s heart is arrogant, but humility comes before honor.

A rich person is wise in his own eyes, but a poor person with understanding sees right through him.

Wisdom protects us just as money protects us, but the advantage of wisdom is that it gives life to those who have it.

This is what the Lord says: Dead bodies will fall like manure on the field. They will be like grain that has been cut but not gathered.

Their rock isn’t like our rock. Even our enemies will agree with this.
