Proverbs

²¹An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. ²²Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee. ²³Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good. ²⁴Man’s goings are of the Lord; how can a man then understand his own way? ²⁵It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make inquiry. ²⁶A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them. ²⁷The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
