1 The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD; he ¹turns it wherever he will.

2 ²Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the LORD ³weighs the heart.

3 ⁴To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.

4 ⁵Haughty eyes and a proud heart, ⁶the lamp^a of the wicked, are sin.

5 The plans of ⁷the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is ⁸hasty comes ⁹only to poverty.

6 ¹⁰The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a ¹¹fleeting ¹²vapor and a ¹³snare of death.^b

7 The violence of the wicked will ¹⁴sweep them away, because they refuse to do what is just.

8 The way of the guilty ¹⁵is crooked, but the conduct of the pure is upright.

9 It is ¹⁶better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.

10 The soul of the wicked desires evil; his neighbor finds no mercy in his eyes.

11 When ¹⁷a scoffer is punished, the simple becomes wise; when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.

12 The Righteous One ¹⁸observes the house of the wicked; he throws the wicked down to ruin.

13 ¹⁹Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself call out and not be answered.
