God

The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning a man from the snares of death.

Whoever oppresses the poor taunts their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors Him.

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, observing the evil and the good.

The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is His delight.

The LORD detests the way of the wicked, but He loves those who pursue righteousness.

Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD— how much more the hearts of men!

Better a little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure with turmoil.

The LORD tears down the house of the proud, but He protects the boundaries of the widow.

The LORD detests the thoughts of the wicked, but the words of the pure are pleasant to Him.

The LORD is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.

The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom, and humility comes before honor.

The plans of the heart belong to man, but the reply of the tongue is from the LORD.

All a man’s ways are pure in his own eyes, but his motives are weighed out by the LORD.

Commit your works to the LORD and your plans will be achieved.

The LORD has made everything for His purpose— even the wicked for the day of disaster.

Everyone who is proud in heart is detestable to the LORD; be assured that he will not go unpunished.

By loving devotion and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the LORD one turns aside from evil.

When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even the man’s enemies live at peace with him.

A man’s heart plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.

Honest scales and balances are from the LORD; all the weights in the bag are His concern.

Whoever heeds instruction will find success, and blessed is he who trusts in the LORD.

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

A crucible for silver and a furnace for gold, but the LORD is the tester of hearts.

Acquitting the guilty and condemning the righteous— both are detestable to the LORD.

The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
