V.1 The king's 4428 heart 3820 [is] in the hand 3027 of the LORD, 3068 [as] the rivers 6388 of water: 4325 he turneth 5186-55 it whithersoever he will. 2654-4

21:2 Every way 1870 of a man 376 [is] right 3477 in his own eyes: 5869 but the LORD 3068 pondereth 8505-6 the hearts. 3826

21:3 To do 6213-2 justice 6666 and judgment 4941 [is] more acceptable 977-12 to the LORD 3068 than sacrifice. 2077

21:4 An high 7312 look, 5869 and a proud 7342 heart, 3820 [and] the plowing 5215 of the wicked, 7563 [is] sin. 2403

21:5 The thoughts 4284 of the diligent 2742 [tend] only to plenteousness; 4195 but of every one [that is] hasty 213-5 only to want. 4270

21:6 The getting 6467 of treasures 214 by a lying 8267 tongue 3956 [is] a vanity 1892 tossed to and fro 5086-12 of them that seek 1245-18 death. 4194

21:7 The robbery 7701 of the wicked 7563 shall destroy 1641-4 them; because they refuse 3985-14 to do 6213-2 judgment. 4941

21:8 The way 1870 of man 376 [is] froward 2019 and strange: 2054 but [as for] the pure, 2134 his work 6467 [is] right. 3477

21:9 [It is] better 2896 to dwell 3427-2 in a corner 6438 of the housetop, 1406 than with a brawling 4079|4066-k woman 802 in a wide 2267 house. 1004

21:10 The soul 5315 of the wicked 7563 desireth 183-14 evil: 7451 his neighbour 7453 findeth no favour 2603-90 in his eyes. 5869

21:11 When the scorner 3887-5 is punished, 6064-2 the simple 6612 is made wise: 2449-4 and when the wise 2450 is instructed, 7919-53 he receiveth 3947-4 knowledge. 1847

21:12 The righteous 6662 [man] wisely considereth 7919-56 the house 1004 of the wicked: 7563 [but God] overthroweth 5557-18 the wicked 7563 for [their] wickedness. 7451

21:13 Whoso stoppeth 331-5 his ears 241 at the cry 2201 of the poor, 1800 he also shall cry 7121-4 himself, but shall not be heard. 6030-11

21:14 A gift 4976 in secret 5643 pacifieth 3711-4 anger: 639 and a reward 7810 in the bosom 2436 strong 5794 wrath. 2534

21:15 [It is] joy 8057 to the just 6662 to do 6213-2 judgment: 4941 but destruction 4288 [shall be] to the workers 6466-6 of iniquity. 205

21:16 The man 120 that wandereth 8582-6 out of the way 1870 of understanding 7919-53 shall remain 5117-4 in the congregation 6951 of the dead. 7496

21:17 He that loveth 157-6 pleasure 8057 [shall be] a poor 4270 man: 376 he that loveth 157-6 wine 3196 and oil 8081 shall not be rich. 6238-55

21:18 The wicked 7563 [shall be] a ransom 3724 for the righteous, 6662 and the transgressor 898-6 for the upright. 3477

21:19 [It is] better 2896 to dwell 3427-2 in the wilderness, 776 4057 than with a contentious 4079|4066-k and an angry 3708 woman. 802

21:20 [There is] treasure 214 to be desired 2530-12 and oil 8081 in the dwelling 5116 of the wise; 2450 but a foolish 3684 man 120 spendeth it up. 1104-17

21:21 He that followeth 7291-6 after righteousness 6666 and mercy 2617 findeth 4672-4 life, 2416 righteousness, 6666 and honour. 3519

21:22 A wise 2450 [man] scaleth 5927-1 the city 5892 of the mighty, 1368 and casteth down 3381-55 the strength 5797 of the confidence 4009 thereof.

21:23 Whoso keepeth 8104-6 his mouth 6310 and his tongue 3956 keepeth 8104-6 his soul 5315 from troubles. 6869

21:24 Proud 2086 [and] haughty 3093 scorner 3887-5 [is] his name, 8034 who dealeth 6213-6 in proud 2087 wrath. 5678

21:25 The desire 8378 of the slothful 6102 killeth 4191-55 him; for his hands 3027 refuse 3985-14 to labour. 6213-2

21:26 He coveteth 183-98 greedily 8378 all the day 3117 long: but the righteous 6662 giveth 5414-4 and spareth 2820-4 not.

21:27 The sacrifice 2077 of the wicked 7563 [is] abomination: 8441 how much more, [when] he bringeth 935-55 it with a wicked mind? 2154

21:28 A false 3577 witness 5707 shall perish: 6-4 but the man 376 that heareth 8085-6 speaketh 1696-17 constantly. 5331

21:29 A wicked 7563 man 376 hardeneth 5810-52 his face: 6440 but [as for] the upright, 3477 he directeth 995-4|3559-55-k his way. 1870

21:30 [There is] no wisdom 2451 nor understanding 8394 nor counsel 6098 against the LORD. 3068
