Proverbs [Sayings] 16:2-8

²All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but Adonai weighs the motives.

³Commit your deeds to Adonai , and your plans shall succeed.

⁴Adonai has made everything for its own end— yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.

⁵Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to Adonai : they shall certainly not be unpunished.

⁶By cheshed ·loving-kindness· and truth iniquity is atoned for. By the fear of Adonai men depart from evil.

⁷When a man’s ways please Adonai , he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

⁸Better is a little with righteousness, than great revenues with lo'mishpat ·injustice·.
