Proverbs 21:1-8

The king's
<04428>

heart
<03820>

[is] in the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

[as] the rivers
<06388>

of water
<04325>_:

he turneth
<05186> (8686)

it whithersoever he will
<02654> (8799)_.

Every way
<01870>

of a man
<0376>

[is] right
<03477>

in his own eyes
<05869>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

pondereth
<08505> (8802)

the hearts
<03826>_.

To do
<06213> (8800)

justice
<06666>

and judgment
<04941>

[is] more acceptable
<0977> (8737)

to the LORD
<03068>

than sacrifice
<02077>_.

An high
<07312>

look
<05869>_,

and a proud
<07342>

heart
<03820>_,

[and] the plowing
<05215>

of the wicked
<07563>_,

[is] sin
<02403>_.

{An...: Heb. Haughtiness of eyes} {the plowing: or, the light}

The thoughts
<04284>

of the diligent
<02742>

[tend] only to plenteousness
<04195>_;

but of every one [that is] hasty
<0213> (8801)

only to want
<04270>_.

The getting
<06467>

of treasures
<0214>

by a lying
<08267>

tongue
<03956>

[is] a vanity
<01892>

tossed to and fro of
<05086> (8737)

them that seek
<01245> (8764)

death
<04194>_.

The robbery
<07701>

of the wicked
<07563>

shall destroy
<01641> (8799)

them; because they refuse
<03985> (8765)

to do
<06213> (8800)

judgment
<04941>_.

{destroy...: Heb. saw them, or, dwell with them}

The way
<01870>

of man
<0376>

[is] froward
<02019>

and strange
<02054>_:

but [as for] the pure
<02134>_,

his work
<06467>

[is] right
<03477>_.
