ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૧૮:૧૨
માણસનું હૃદય અભિમાની થયા પછી નાશ આવે છે, પણ વિનમ્રતા સન્માનની અગાઉ આવે છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन १८:१२
नाश होने से पहले मनुष्य के मन में घमण्ड, और महिमा पाने से पहले नम्रता होती है।

In context

10The LORD’s name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe.

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?
