Proverbs 20:22-27

²²Do not say, I will give punishment for evil: go on waiting for the Lord, and he will be your saviour.

²³Unequal weights are disgusting to the Lord, and false scales are not good.

²⁴A man's steps are of the Lord; how then may a man have knowledge of his way?

²⁵It is a danger to a man to say without thought, It is holy, and, after taking his oaths, to be questioning if it is necessary to keep them.

²⁶A wise king puts evil-doers to flight, and makes their evil-doing come back on them.

²⁷The Lord keeps watch over the spirit of man, searching all the deepest parts of the body.
