Proverbs 16:5-10

⁵Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.

⁶By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.

⁷When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

⁸Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.

⁹A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.

¹⁰A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
