1
The
preparations
of
the
heart
in
man,
and
the
answer
of
the
tongue,
[is]
from
the
LORD.
2
All
the
ways
of
a
man
[are]
clean
in
his
own
eyes;
but
the
LORD
weigheth
the
spirits.
3
Commit
thy
works
unto
the
LORD,
and
thy
thoughts
shall
be
established.
4
The
LORD
hath
made
all
[things]
for
himself:
yea,
even
the
wicked
for
the
day
of
evil.
5
Every
one
[that
is]
proud
in
heart
[is]
an
abomination
to
the
LORD:
[though]
hand
[join]
in
hand,
he
shall
not
be
unpunished.
6
By
mercy
and
truth
iniquity
is
purged:
and
by
the
fear
of
the
LORD
[men]
depart
from
evil.
7
When
a
man’s
ways
please
the
LORD,
he
maketh
even
his
enemies
to
be
at
peace
with
him.
8
Better
[is]
a
little
with
righteousness
than
great
revenues
without
right.
9
A
man’s
heart
deviseth
his
way:
but
the
LORD
directeth
his
steps.
10
A
divine
sentence
[is]
in
the
lips
of
the
king:
his
mouth
transgresseth
not
in
judgment.
11
A
just
weight
and
balance
[are]
the
LORD’S:
all
the
weights
of
the
bag
[are]
his
work.
12
[It
is]
an
abomination
to
kings
to
commit
wickedness:
for
the
throne
is
established
by
righteousness.
13
Righteous
lips
[are]
the
delight
of
kings;
and
they
love
him
that
speaketh
right.
14
The
wrath
of
a
king
[is
as]
messengers
of
death:
but
a
wise
man
will
pacify
15
In
the
light
of
the
king’s
countenance
[is]
life;
and
his
favour
[is]
as
a
cloud
of
the
latter
rain.
16
How
much
better
[is
it]
to
get
wisdom
than
gold!
and
to
get
understanding
rather
to
be
chosen
than
silver!
17
The
highway
of
the
upright
[is]
to
depart
from
evil:
he
that
keepeth
his
way
preserveth
his
soul.
18
Pride
[goeth]
before
destruction,
and
an
haughty
spirit
before
a
fall.
19
Better
[it
is
to
be]
of
an
humble
spirit
with
the
lowly,
than
to
divide
the
spoil
with
the
proud.
20
He
that
handleth
a
matter
wisely
shall
find
good:
and
whoso
trusteth
in
the
LORD,
happy
[is]
21
The
wise
in
heart
shall
be
called
prudent:
and
the
sweetness
of
the
lips
increaseth
learning.
22
Understanding
[is]
a
wellspring
of
life
unto
him
that
hath
it:
but
the
instruction
of
fools
[is]
folly.
23
The
heart
of
the
wise
teacheth
his
mouth,
and
addeth
learning
to
his
lips.
24
Pleasant
words
[are
as]
an
honeycomb,
sweet
to
the
soul,
and
health
to
the
bones.
25
There
is
a
way
that
seemeth
right
unto
a
man,
but
the
end
thereof
[are]
the
ways
of
death.
26
He
that
laboureth
laboureth
for
himself;
for
his
mouth
craveth
it
of
him.
27
An
ungodly
man
diggeth
up
evil:
and
in
his
lips
[there
is]
as
a
burning
fire.
28
A
froward
man
soweth
strife:
and
a
whisperer
separateth
chief
friends.
29
A
violent
man
enticeth
his
neighbour,
and
leadeth
him
into
the
way
[that
is]
not
good.
30
He
shutteth
his
eyes
to
devise
froward
things:
moving
his
lips
he
bringeth
evil
to
pass.
31
The
hoary
head
[is]
a
crown
of
glory,
[if]
it
be
found
in
the
way
of
righteousness.
32
[He
that
is]
slow
to
anger
[is]
better
than
the
mighty;
and
he
that
ruleth
his
spirit
than
he
that
taketh
a
city.
33
The
lot
is
cast
into
the
lap;
but
the
whole
disposing
thereof
[is]
of
the
LORD.
