Proverbs 20:26-30 Modern English Version (MEV)

26. A wise king sifts out the wicked,and drives the threshing wheel over them.

27. The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord,searching all the inward parts of the heart.

28. Mercy and truth preserve the king,and his throne is upheld by mercy.

29. The glory of young men is their strength,and the beauty of old men is the gray head.

30. The blows of a wound cleanse away evil,so do stripes the inward parts of the heart.
