16:25 There is a way that seems right to a person, 1
but its end is the way that leads to death. 2
1 tn Heb “There is a way that is right before a man [to the face of a man].”
2 tn Heb “the ways of death” (so KJV, ASV). This construct phrase features a genitive of destiny: “ways that lead to [or, end in] death.”This proverb is identical to 14:12.
