Proverbs 16
-
1 Of man
are arrangements of the heart, And from Jehovah an answer of the tongue. - 2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering the spirits.
- 3 Roll unto Jehovah thy works, And established are thy purposes,
-
4 All things hath Jehovah wrought for Himself, And also the wicked
worketh for a day of evil. -
5 An abomination to Jehovah
is every proud one of heart, Hand to hand he is not acquitted. - 6 In kindness and truth pardoned is iniquity, And in the fear of Jehovah Turn thou aside from evil.
- 7 When a man's ways please Jehovah, even his enemies, He causeth to be at peace with him.
-
8 Better
is a little with righteousness, Than abundance of increase without justice. - 9 The heart of man deviseth his way, And Jehovah establisheth his step.
-
10 An oath
is on the lips of a king, In judgment his mouth trespasseth not. -
11 A just beam and balances
are Jehovah's, His work are all the stones of the bag. -
12 An abomination to kings
is doing wickedness, For by righteousness is a throne established. -
13 The delight of kings
are righteous lips, And whoso is speaking uprightly he loveth, -
14 The fury of a king
is messengers of death, And a wise man pacifieth it. -
15 In the light of a king's face
is life, And his good-will is as a cloud of the latter rain. - 16 To get wisdom--how much better than gold, And to get understanding to be chosen than silver!
-
17 A highway of the upright
is , `Turn from evil,' Whoso is preserving his soul is watching his way. -
18 Before destruction
is pride, And before stumbling--a haughty spirit.' - 19 Better is humility of spirit with the poor, Than to apportion spoil with the proud.
- 20 The wise in any matter findeth good, And whoso is trusting in Jehovah, O his happiness.
- 21 To the wise in heart is called, `Intelligent,' And sweetness of lips increaseth learning.
-
22 A fountain of life
is understanding to its possessors, The instruction of fools is folly. - 23 The heart of the wise causeth his mouth to act wisely, And by his lips he increaseth learning,
-
24 Sayings of pleasantness
are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone. - 25 There is a way right before a man, And its latter end--ways of death.
-
26 A labouring man hath laboured for himself, For his mouth hath caused
him to bend over it. - 27 A worthless man is preparing evil, And on his lips--as a burning fire.
- 28 A froward man sendeth forth contention, A tale-bearer is separating a familiar friend.
- 29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, And hath causeth him to go in a way not good.
- 30 Consulting his eyes to devise froward things, Moving his lips he hath accomplished evil.
-
31 A crown of beauty
are grey hairs, In the way of righteousness it is found. -
32 Better
is the slow to anger than the mighty, And the ruler over his spirit than he who is taking a city. -
33 Into the centre is the lot cast, And from Jehovah
is all its judgment!
