4 The Lord has prepared everything for His purpose —even the wicked for the day of disaster.
5 Everyone with a proud heart is detestable to the Lord; be assured, he will not go unpunished.
6 Wickedness is atoned for by loyalty and faithfulness, and one turns from evil by the fear of the Lord.
7 When a man’s ways please the Lord,He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better a little with righteousnessthan great income with injustice.
9 A man’s heart plans his way,but the Lord determines his steps.
10 God’s verdict is on the lips of a king; his mouth should not give an unfair judgment.
