Proverbs 20:8-16

⁸A king who sits on his throne to judge people can easily MTY find out what things that people have done are good and what things are evil.

⁹There is no one RHQ who can truthfully say, “I do not know of any wrong things that I have done; I have ◄gotten rid of all my sinful behavior/quit doing what is sinful►.”

¹⁰Yahweh detests people who use weights that are not right and measures that are not correct.

¹¹Even children show by what they do whether they are good or not; they show whether ◄what they do/their behavior► is honest and right or not.

¹²Two of the things that Yahweh has created for us are ears to hear things and eyes to see things.

¹³If you want to sleep all the time, you will become poor; if you stay awake and work, you will have plenty of food.

¹⁴People look at things that they are about to buy, and in order to get it for a lower price sometimes they say, “◄It is no good/It is poor quality►,” but after they buy it, they go and boast about having bought it for a cheap price.

¹⁵Gold and precious stones are valuable, but wise words MTY are more valuable.

¹⁶If you foolishly promise to a stranger that you will pay what he owes if he is unable to pay it DOU, you deserve to have someone take your coat from you.
