The Kings heart is in the hand of the Lord, as the riuers of waters: he turneth it whithersoeuer it pleaseth him.
2
Euery way of a man is right in his owne eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.
3

4
A hautie looke, and a proude heart, which is the light of the wicked, is sinne.
5
The thoughtes of the diligent doe surely bring abundance: but whosoeuer is hastie, commeth surely to pouertie.
6
The gathering of treasures by a deceitfull tongue is vanitie tossed to and from of them that seeke death.
7
The robberie of the wicked shall destroy them: for they haue refused to execute iudgement.
8
The way of some is peruerted and strange: but of the pure man, his worke is right.
