23 An abomination of Yahweh is a stone and a weight, and scales of falsehood are not good.
24 Away from Yahweh are the steps of a strong man, and how will humankind understand his ways?
25 It is a snare to humankind to say rashly “It is holy,” and after vows, to scrutinize.
26 A wise king winnows the wicked, and he will drive a wheel over them.
27 The lamp of Yahweh is the spirit of humankind, he who searches every innermost part.
28 Loyalty and faithfulness will preserve a king, and he is upheld with the righteousness of his throne.
29 The glory of young men is their strength, but the beauty of the aged is gray hair.
