New Testament

Proverbs 16:1-9 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

1. The plans of the heart belong to man, but the tongue’s answer is from Adonai.

2. All a man’s ways are pure in his own eyes, but Adonai weighs the motives.

3. Commit whatever you do to Adonai, and your plans will succeed.

4. Adonai works everything out for his own purpose— even the wicked for a day of disaster.

5. Adonai abhors all the proud in heart. Be assured, they will not go unpunished.

6. By mercy and truth is iniquity atoned, and by the fear of Adonai one avoids evil.

7. When one’s ways are pleasing to Adonai, he makes even his enemies be at peace with him.

8. Better a little with righteousness than much income without justice.

9. The heart of man plans his course, but Adonai directs his steps.
