4 ¹The LORD has made everything for its purpose, even ²the wicked for the day of trouble.

5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is ³an abomination to the LORD; ⁴be assured, he will not go unpunished.

6 By ⁵steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by ⁶the fear of the LORD one ⁷turns away from evil.

7 When a man's ways please the LORD, ⁸he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

8 ⁹Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice.

9 ¹⁰The heart of man plans his way, but ¹¹the LORD establishes his steps.

10 ¹²An oracle is on the lips of a king; his mouth does not sin in judgment.

11 ¹³A just balance and scales are the LORD's; all the weights in the bag are his work.

12 It is an abomination to kings to do evil, for ¹⁴the throne is established by righteousness.

13 ¹⁵Righteous lips are the delight of a king, and he loves him who speaks what is right.

14 ¹⁶A king's wrath is a messenger of death, and a wise man will ¹⁷appease it.

15 ¹⁸In the light of a king's face there is life, and his ¹⁹favor is like ²⁰the clouds that bring the spring rain.

16 ²¹How much better to get wisdom than ²²gold! To get understanding is to be chosen rather than ²³silver.

17 The highway of the upright ²⁴turns aside from evil; whoever guards his way preserves his life.

18 ²⁵Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

19 ²⁶It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor than to ²⁷divide the spoil with the proud.

20 Whoever gives thought to the word^a²⁸will discover good, and blessed is he ²⁹who trusts in the LORD.

21 The wise of heart is called discerning, and sweetness of speech ³⁰increases persuasiveness.

22 Good sense is ³¹a fountain of life to him who has it, but the instruction of fools is folly.

23 ³²The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious and adds persuasiveness to his lips.

24 ³³Gracious words are like ³⁴a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and ³⁵health to the body.

25 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.^b

26 A worker's appetite works for him; his ³⁶mouth urges him on.

27 ³⁷A worthless man plots evil, and his speech^c is like ³⁸a scorching fire.

28 ³⁹A dishonest man spreads strife, and ⁴⁰a whisperer ⁴¹separates close friends.

29 A man of violence ⁴²entices his neighbor and leads him in a way that is not good.

30 Whoever winks his eyes plans^d⁴³dishonest things; he who ⁴⁴purses his lips brings evil to pass.

31 ⁴⁵Gray hair is ⁴⁶a crown of glory; it ⁴⁷is gained in a righteous life.

32 ⁴⁸Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

33 ⁴⁹The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is ⁵⁰from the LORD.
