21 The heart of a king is channels of water in the hand of Yahweh;
he steers it according to all that he desires.
2 Every way of a man is right in his eyes,
but Yahweh examines hearts.
3 To do righteousness and justice
is preferred to Yahweh more than a sacrifice.
4 Height of eyes and broadness of heart,
the lamp of wicked ones, are sin.
5 The plans of the diligent one surely are to profit,
but everyone who hurries about surely is to lack.
6 The making of treasures by a tongue of falsehood
is scattered vapor, seekers of death.
7 The violence of wicked ones will drag them away,
for they refuse to do justice.
8 Perverse is the way of a guilty man,
but the pure one, upright is his behavior.
9 Better to dwell on the corner of a roof
than with a woman of quarrels and a house of companionship.
10 The soul of the wicked one craves evil;
his neighbor is not shown grace in his eyes.
11 When fining a mocker a naive one becomes wise,
and when giving insight to a wise one he receives knowledge.
12 A righteous one has insight into the house of the wicked one;
overturning wicked ones to evil.
13 One who shuts his ears from the outcry of a lowly one,
he also will cry out but will not be answered.
14 A gift in secrecy subdues nose,
and a bribe in the bosom, strong heat.
15 A joy for the righteous one is doing justice,
but a terror for doers of iniquity.
16 A man wandering from the way of having insight
will rest in the assembly of the spirits of dead ones.
17 A man of lack loves joy;
a lover of wine and oil will not become rich.
18 A ransom for the righteous one is a wicked one,
and instead of upright ones, one who acts treacherously.
19 Better to dwell in a land of wilderness
than with a woman of quarrels and vexation.
20 Desirable treasure and oil are in the abode of a wise one,
but a stupid man swallows it up.
21 A pursuer of righteousness and covenant faithfulness
will find life, righteousness, and honor.
22 A wise one ascends a city of mighty ones
and he brings down the strength of its confidence.
23 One who keeps his mouth and his tongue
keeps his life from distress.
24 A presumptuous, haughty one, “Mocker” is his name,
acting with the rage of presumption.
25 The desire of the lazy one causes him to die,
for his hands refuse to act.
26 All the day he desires desire for himself,
but a righteous one gives and does not withhold.
27 The sacrifice of the wicked ones is an abomination;
how much more when he brings it with a wicked plan.
28 A witness of lies will perish,
but the man who listens will speak to perpetuity.
29 A wicked man strengthens his face,
but an upright one, he considers his ways.[fn]
30 There is no wisdom and there is no understanding
and there is no counsel in opposition to Yahweh.
31 A horse is made ready for the day of battle,
but the salvation is of Yahweh.
Instead of he considers his ways some read the Hebrew as he establishes his way.
