[It is] a snare to the man [who] devoureth [that which is] holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
The spirit of man [is] the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
The glory of young men [is] their strength: and the beauty of old men [is] the gray head.
The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so [do] stripes the inward parts of the belly.
The king's heart [is] in the hand of the LORD, [as] the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
Every way of a man [is] right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
To do justice and judgment [is] more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
An high look, and a proud heart, [and] the plowing of the wicked, [is] sin.
