Proverbs 18:11-14 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

11. The substance of the rich man is the city of his strength, and as a strong wall compassing him about.

12. Before destruction, the heart of a man is exalted: and before he be glorified, it is humbled.

13. He that answereth before he heareth sheweth himself to be a fool, and worthy of confusion.

14. The spirit of a man upholdeth his infirmity: but a spirit that is easily angered, who can bear?
