SEV Biblia, Chapter 28:11

¶ El hombre rico es sabio en su opinión; mas el pobre entendido es más sabio que él.

---

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 11. The rich man [is] wise in his own conceit , etc.] Ascribing his getting riches to his great sagacity, wisdom, and prudence; and being flattered with it by dependents on him; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out : a man of good understanding, whether in things natural, civil, moral, or spiritual, though poor, as a man may be poor and yet a wise man; such an one, when he comes into company with a rich man, wise in his own conceit, he soon by conversation with him finds him out to be a very foolish man, and exposes him as one; for riches are not always to men of understanding, or all that have them are not such; and better is a poor wise man than even a foolish king; (see Ecclesiastes 9:11,15 4:13).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 11 - Rich men are so flattered, that they think themselves superior to others.
