1. The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord;he turns it wherever he will.
2. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,but the Lord weighs the heart.
3. To do righteousness and justiceis more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
4. Haughty eyes and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked, are sin.
5. The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance,but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.
