Proverbs 16:1-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. Plans are made in human hearts,but from the Lord comes the tongue’s response.

2. All one’s ways are pure in one’s own eyes,but the measurer of motives is the Lord.

3. Entrust your works to the Lord,and your plans will succeed.

4. The Lord has made everything for a purpose,even the wicked for the evil day.

5. Every proud heart is an abomination to the Lord;be assured that none will go unpunished.
