Proverbs 16:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ Suppose you are lowly in spirit along with those who are treated badly.
    That’s better than sharing stolen goods with those who are proud.

²⁰ If anyone pays attention to what they’re taught, they will succeed.
    Blessed is the person who trusts in the Lord.

²¹ Wise hearts are known for understanding what is right.
    Kind words make people want to learn more.
