1. The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD as the watercourses: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
2. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD weigheth the hearts.
3. To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
4. An high look, and a proud heart, even the lamp of the wicked, is sin.
5. The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness: but every one that is hasty hasteth only to want.
6. The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vapour driven to and fro; they that seek them seek death.
