Proverbs 16:20 Context
18Pride goeth before destruction: and an hautie spirit before a fall. 19Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, then to diuide the spoile with the proud. 20He that handleth a matter wisely, shall finde good: and who so trusteth in the Lord, happy is hee. 21The wise in heart shall be called prudent; and the sweetnesse of the lips increaseth learning. 22Understanding is a well-spring of life vnto him that hath it: but the instruction of fooles is folly.
