Proverbs 16:5-9

⁵Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD; From generation to generation he shall not be unpunished.

⁶Through kindness and truth, iniquity is expiated; And, through 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.

⁹The heart of man deviseth his way, But the LORD establisheth his steps.
