Proverbs
Chapters 21:1-6
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
1To the Lord, a king’s mind is like a ditch used to water the fields. He can lead the king wherever he wants him to go.
2People think that whatever they do is right, but the Lord judges the reasons for everything they do.
3Do what is right and fair. The Lord loves that more than sacrifices.
4Proud looks and proud thoughts are sins. They show a person is evil.
5Careful planning leads to profit. Acting too quickly leads to poverty.
6Wealth that comes from telling lies disappears quickly and leads to death.
