Proverbs 18:12-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 Before disaster the heart is haughty,(A)
but before honor is humility.
13 Whoever answers before listening,(B)
theirs is folly and shame.[a]
14 One’s spirit supports one when ill,
but a broken spirit who can bear?[b]

but a crushed spirit who can bear?(C)
