1 The preparations H4633 of the heart H3820 NMS in man H120 L-CMS , and the answer H4617 of the tongue H3956 , is from the LORD H3068 .
2 All H3605 CMS the ways H1870 CMD-1MS of a man H376 NMS are clean H2134 AMS in his own eyes H5869 B-CMD-3MS ; but the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS weigheth H8505 the spirits H7307 CFP .
3 Commit H1556 thy works H4639 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS , and thy thoughts H4284 shall be established H3559 .
4 The LORD H3068 EDS hath made H6466 all H3605 NMS things for himself H4617 : yea , even H1571 W-CONJ the wicked H7563 AMS for the day H3117 L-NMS of evil H7451 AFS .
5 Every one H3605 NMS that is proud H1362 in heart H3820 NMS is an abomination H8441 to the LORD H3068 EDS : though hand H3027 NFS join in hand H3027 , he shall not H3808 NADV be unpunished H5352 .
6 By mercy H2617 and truth H571 iniquity H5771 NMS is purged H3722 : and by the fear H3374 of the LORD H3068 EDS men depart H5493 VQI2MS from evil H7451 M-AMS .
7 When a man H376 NMS \'s ways H1870 CMD-1MS please H7521 the LORD H3068 EDS , he maketh even H1571 CONJ his enemies H341 to be at peace H7999 with H854 PREP-3MS him .
8 Better H2896 AMS is a little H4592 AMS with righteousness H6666 than great H7230 M-NMS revenues H8393 without H3808 B-NPAR right H4941 NMS .
9 A man H120 NMS \'s heart H3820 NMS deviseth H2803 his way H1870 CMS-3MS : but the LORD H3068 W-EDS directeth H3559 VHY3MS his steps H6806 .
10 A divine sentence H7081 is in H5921 PREP the lips H8193 of the king H4428 NMS : his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS transgresseth H4603 not H3808 NADV in judgment H4941 .
11 A just H4941 NMS weight H6425 and balance H3976 are the LORD H3068 L-EDS \'s : all H3605 NMS the weights H68 CMP of the bag H3599 are his work H4639 .
12 It is an abomination H8441 to kings H4428 NMP to commit H6213 VQFC wickedness H7562 NMS : for H3588 CONJ the throne H3678 is established H3559 by righteousness H6666 .
13 Righteous H6664 NMS lips H8193 are the delight H7522 of kings H4428 NMP ; and they love H157 him that speaketh H1696 right H3477 AMP .
14 The wrath H2534 of a king H4428 NMS is as messengers H4397 of death H4194 NMS : but a wise H2450 AMS man H376 W-NMS will pacify H3722 it .
15 In the light H216 B-CMS of the king H4428 NMS \'s countenance H6440 CMP is life H2416 NMP ; and his favor H7522 is as a cloud H5645 of the latter rain H4456 .
16 How much H4100 IPRO better H2896 is it to get H7069 wisdom H2451 NFS than gold H2742 ! and to get H7069 understanding H998 NFS rather to be chosen H977 than silver H3701 !
17 The highway H4546 of the upright H3477 AMP is to depart H5493 VQI2MS from evil H7451 M-AMS : he that keepeth H5341 VQPMS his way H1870 preserveth H8104 his soul H5315 NMS-3MS .
18 Pride H1347 goeth before H6440 L-CMP destruction H7667 , and a haughty H1363 CMS spirit H7307 NMS before H6440 L-CMP a fall H3783 .
19 Better H2896 AMS it is to be of a humble H8217 spirit H7307 NFS with H854 PREP the lowly H6035 , than to divide H2505 the spoil H7998 with H854 PREP the proud H1343 .
20 He that handleth a matter wisely H7919 shall find H4672 VQY3MS good H2896 AMS : and whoso trusteth H982 in the LORD H3068 , happy H835 is he .
21 The wise H2450 in heart H3820 NMS shall be called H7121 VNY3MS prudent H995 : and the sweetness H4986 W-NMS of the lips H8193 NFD increaseth H3254 VHY3MS learning H3948 .
22 Understanding H7922 is a wellspring H4726 of life H2416 NMP unto him that hath H1167 CMP-3MS it : but the instruction H4148 W-CMS of fools H191 is folly H200 .
23 The heart H3820 NMS of the wise H2450 AMS teacheth H7919 his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS , and addeth H3254 VHY3MS learning H3948 to H5921 W-PREP his lips H8193 CFD-3MS .
24 Pleasant H5278 words H561 CMP are as a honeycomb H6688 , sweet H4966 to the soul H5315 , and health H4832 to the bones H6106 .
25 There is H3426 PART a way H1870 NMS that seemeth H6440 L-CMP right H3477 AMS unto a man H376 NMS , but the end H319 thereof are the ways H1870 NMS of death H4194 NMS .
26 He H5315 GFS that laboreth H6001 NMS laboreth H5998 for himself ; for H3588 CONJ his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS craveth H404 it of H5921 PREP-3MS him .
27 An ungodly H1100 man H376 NMS diggeth up H3738 evil H7451 AFS : and in H5921 W-PREP his lips H8193 there is as a burning H6867 fire H784 .
28 A froward H8419 man H376 NMS soweth H7971 strife H4066 : and a whisperer H5372 separateth H6504 chief friends H441 .
29 A violent H2555 AMS man H376 NMS enticeth H6601 his neighbor H7453 NMS-3MS , and leadeth H1980 him into the way H1870 B-NMS that is not H3808 NADV good H2896 AMS .
30 He shutteth H6095 his eyes H5869 CMD-3MS to devise H2803 froward things H8419 : moving H7169 his lips H8193 CFD-3MS he bringeth evil to pass H3615 .
31 The hoary H7872 head is a crown H5850 CFS of glory H8597 , if it be found H4672 in the way H1870 B-NMS of righteousness H6666 NFS .
32 He that is slow H750 JMS to anger H639 NMD is better H2896 AMS than the mighty H1368 ; and he that ruleth H4910 his spirit H7307 B-CMS-3MS than he that taketh H3920 a city H5892 .
33 The lot H1486 D-NMS is cast H2904 into the lap H2436 ; but the whole H3605 NMS disposing H4941 thereof is of the LORD H3068 .
