It is amazing how the KJV and the bible in general has shaped so much of our language and culture.

Shall we call it poetic licence?

It doesn’t say “Pride goeth before a fall.” It says,” Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.” I believe there is one more misquote but it flashed by so quickly that I couldn’t nail it.
