8 A king who sits on his throne to judge sifts out every evil with his eyes.
9 Who can say,“I’ve made my heart pure.I’m cleansed from my sin”?
10 A double standard of weights and measures—both are disgusting to the Lord.
11 Even a child makes himself known by his actions,whether his deeds are pure or right.
12 The ear that hears,the eye that sees—the Lord made them both.
13 Do not love sleep or you will end up poor.Keep your eyes open, and you will have plenty to eat.
14 “Bad! Bad!” says the buyer.Then, as he goes away, he brags ⌊about his bargain⌋.
