Proverbs 16:19-21

Revised Standard Version

¹⁹ It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor
    than to divide the spoil with the proud.
²⁰ He who gives heed to the word will prosper,
    and happy is he who trusts in the Lord.
²¹ The wise of heart is called a man of discernment,
    and pleasant speech increases persuasiveness.
