12 Before destruction the heart of man is proud, But before honor is humility.
13 He who gives answer before he hears, That is folly and shame to him.
14 A man`s spirit will sustain him in sickness, But a crushed spirit who can bear?
15 The heart of the discerning gets knowledge. The ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
16 A man`s gift makes room for him, And brings him before great men.
17 He who pleads his cause first seems right; Until another comes and questions him.
18 The lot settles disputes, And keeps strong ones apart.
