- All a person’s ways seem pure to them,
but motives are weighed by the Lord. - Commit to the Lord whatever you do,
and he will establish your plans. - Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with injustice. - In their hearts humans plan their course,
but the Lord establishes their steps. - How much better to get wisdom than gold,
to get insight rather than silver! - Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
and blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord. - Gracious words are a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. - A perverse person stirs up conflict,
and a gossip separates close friends. - Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city.
For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.Next verse!With image
