Proverbs 22:4
4The end of moderation is the fear of the Lord, riches and glory and life. ▼▼22:4A translation of ‘modestiae’ as modesty would be too limited for this context. The verse refers to every type of self-restraint, including modesty. The word ‘finis’ has a dual meaning here: it refers to the limits of moderation as well as to its final result.(Conte)
