Proverbs 18:13 in context
- 11The rich man’s wealth is his strong city,
like an unscalable wall in his own imagination. - 12Before destruction the heart of man is proud,
but before honor is humility. - 13He who answers before he hears,
that is folly and shame to him. - 14A man’s spirit will sustain him in sickness,
but a crushed spirit, who can bear? - 15The heart of the discerning gets knowledge.
The ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
