Proverbs 20:3-11

³It is an honor for a man to cease from a contest; but every fool enrageth himself.

⁴Because it is winter's cold, will the sluggard not plough: when he therefore seeketh in the harvest time, there will be nothing.

⁵Like deep water is counsel in the heart of man; but the man of understanding will draw it out.

⁶Most men will proclaim every one his own kindness; but who can find a faithful man?

⁷The righteous walketh in his integrity: happy will be his children after him.

⁸A king that sitteth on the throne of justice scattereth away with his eyes all evil.

⁹Who can say, I have made my heart pure, I am cleansed from my sin.

¹⁰Divers weights, and divers measures, are both of them alike an abomination of the Lord.

¹¹Even a child maketh himself known by his doings, whether his work will be pure, and whether it will be upright.
