ULT PRO Chapter 16

PRO 16 ©

16The arrangements of the heart are a man’s,

but the answer of the tongue is from Yahweh.

2All the ways of a man are pure in his eyes,

but Yahweh examines spirits.

3Roll to Yahweh your works,

and your plans will be established.

4Yahweh has made all for its purpose

and even a wicked one for the day of evil.

5An abomination to Yahweh is each one high of heart,

hand to hand he will not remain blameless.

6By covenant faithfulness and trustworthiness iniquity is atoned for,

and by the fear of Yahweh one turns away from evil.

7When Yahweh is pleased with the ways of a man,

he causes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

8Better is a little with righteousness

than an abundance of produce with no justice.

9The heart of a man plans his way,

but Yahweh establishes his step.

10Divination is on the lips of a king,

in judgment his mouth will not act unfaithfully.

11A balance and scales of justice are for Yahweh;

all the stones of the bag are his work.

12An abomination of kings is doing wickedness,

for by righteousness is a throne established.

13The delight of kings are lips of righteousness,

and he loves one who speaks upright things.

14The heat of a king is messengers of death,

but a wise man will atone for it.

15In the light of the face of the king is life,

and his favor is like a cloud of spring rain.

16How better it is to acquire wisdom than gold,

and to acquire understanding is to be chosen more than silver.

17The highway of the upright ones turns away from evil;

one who protects his life guards his way.

18Before the face of breaking is pride,

and before the face of a stumbling is a height of spirit.

19Better to be lowly of spirit with afflicted ones

than to share a portion of spoil with proud ones.

20One who comprehends concerning a matter will find good,

and one who trusts in Yahweh, he is happy.

21The wise of heart will be called understanding one,

and the sweetness of lips increases learning.

22A fountain of life is the insight of its owner,

but the instruction of fools is folly.

23The heart of the wise makes his mouth insightful,

and on his lips it increases learning.

24A dripping of honey are words of pleasantness,

sweet to the soul and healing to the bone.

25There is a right way before the face of a man

and its end is the ways of death.

26The appetite of the laborer labors for him,

for his mouth presses on him.

27A man of worthlessness digs up evil

and on his lips it is like a scorching fire.

28A man of perverse things lets loose strife,

and a murmurer is one who separates a close friend.

29A man of violence entices his neighbor,

and he leads him in a way that is not good.

30One who shuts his eyes plans perverse things;

one who compresses his lips brings evil to completion.

31Gray hair is a crown of splendor;

in the way of righteousness it is found.

32Better is one long of nostrils than a mighty one,

and one who rules his spirit than one who captures a city.

33Into the lap a lot is cast,

but its every judgment is from Yahweh.
