23 Differing weights are detestable to the Lord, and dishonest scales are unfair.
24 A man’s steps are determined by the Lord, so how can anyone understand his own way?
25 It is a trap for anyone to dedicate something rashlyand later to reconsider his vows.
26 A wise king separates out the wicked and drives the threshing wheel over them.
27 The Lord’s lamp sheds light on a person’s life, searching the innermost parts.
28 Loyalty and faithfulness deliver a king;through loyalty he maintains his throne.
29 The glory of young men is their strength,and the splendor of old men is gray hair.
