22Don’t say, “I will pay back evil.” Wait for the LORD, and he will save you.
23The LORD detests differing weights, and dishonest scales are not pleasing.
24A man’s steps are from the LORD; how then can man understand his way?
25It is a snare to a man to make a rash dedication, then later to consider his vows.
26A wise king winnows out the wicked, and drives the threshing wheel over them.
27The spirit of man is the LORD’s lamp, searching all his innermost parts.
28Love and faithfulness keep the king safe. His throne is sustained by love.
29The glory of young men is their strength. The splendour of old men is their grey hair.
