1The king’s heart is in the hand of Jehovah as the watercourses: He turneth it whithersoever he will.
2Every way of a man is right in his own eyes; But Jehovah weigheth the hearts.
3To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to Jehovah than sacrifice.
4A high look, and a proud heart, Even the lamp of the wicked, is sin.
5The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; But every one that is hasty hasteth only to want.
