1. The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord like channels of water;he turns it wherever he wants.
2. All of a person’s ways seem right in his own opinion,but the Lord evaluates the motives.
3. To do righteousness and justiceis more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
4. Haughty eyes and a proud heart – the agricultural product of the wicked is sin.
5. The plans of the diligent lead only to plenty,but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.
6. Making a fortune by a lying tongue is like a vapor driven back and forth; they seek death.
