Proverbs 20:24-29

²⁴A person's steps are directed by Yahweh; how then can he understand his way?

²⁵It is a snare for a person to say rashly, “This thing is holy,” and begin to think about what it means only after making his vow.

²⁶A wise king winnows the wicked and he turns a threshing wheel over them.

²⁷The spirit of a person is the lamp of Yahweh, searching all his inmost parts.

²⁸Covenant faithfulness and trustworthiness preserve the king; his throne is made secure by love.

²⁹The glory of young men is their strength and the splendor of old people is their gray hair.
