“A rich man’s wealth is his fortified city; it is like a high wall in his imagination.”
Proverbs 18:11 (BSB)
Context Reading
9Whoever is slothful in his work is brother to him who destroys. 10The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. 11A rich man’s wealth is his fortified city; it is like a high wall in his imagination. 12Before his downfall a man’s heart is proud, but humility comes before honor. 13He who answers a matter before he hears it — this is folly and disgrace to him.
