Proverbs 18:11

9 Whoever is slothful in his work is brother to him who destroys.

10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

A rich man’s wealth is his fortified city; it is like a high wall in his imagination.

12 Before his downfall a man’s heart is proud, but humility comes before honor.

13 He who answers a matter before he hears it— this is folly and disgrace to him.
