Proverbs 16:18
Berean Standard Bible
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
Context
16How much better to acquire wisdom than gold!
To gain understanding is more desirable than silver. 17The highway of the upright leads away from evil;
he who guards his way protects his life. 18Pride goes before destruction,
and a haughty spirit before a fall. 19It is better to be lowly in spirit among the humble
than to divide the spoil with the proud. 20Whoever heeds instruction will find success,*
and blessed is he who trusts in the LORD.
