Proverbs 21 (kjv)

The king's^H4428 heart^H3820 is in the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068, as the rivers^H6388 of water^H4325: he turneth^H5186 it whithersoever he will^H2654.²Every way^H1870 of a man^H376 is right^H3477 in his own eyes^H5869: but the LORD^H3068 pondereth^H8505 the hearts^H3826.³To do^H6213 justice^H6666 and judgment^H4941 is more acceptable^H977 to the LORD^H3068 than sacrifice^H2077.⁴An high^H7312 look^H5869, and a proud^H7342 heart^H3820, and the plowing^H5215 of the wicked^H7563, is sin^H2403.⁵The thoughts^H4284 of the diligent^H2742 tend only to plenteousness^H4195; but of every one that is hasty^H213 only to want^H4270.⁶The getting^H6467 of treasures^H214 by a lying^H8267 tongue^H3956 is a vanity^H1892 tossed to and fro of^H5086 them that seek^H1245 death^H4194.⁷The robbery^H7701 of the wicked^H7563 shall destroy^H1641 them; because they refuse^H3985 to do^H6213 judgment^H4941.⁸The way^H1870 of man^H376 is froward^H2019 and strange^H2054: but as for the pure^H2134, his work^H6467 is right^H3477.⁹It is better^H2896 to dwell^H3427 in a corner^H6438 of the housetop^H1406, than with a brawling^{H4079 H4066} woman^H802 in a wide^H2267 house^H1004.¹⁰The soul^H5315 of the wicked^H7563 desireth^H183 evil^H7451: his neighbour^H7453 findeth no favour^H2603 in his eyes^H5869.¹¹When the scorner^H3887 is punished^H6064, the simple^H6612 is made wise^H2449: and when the wise^H2450 is instructed^H7919, he receiveth^H3947 knowledge^H1847.¹²The righteous^H6662 man wisely considereth^H7919 the house^H1004 of the wicked^H7563: but God overthroweth^H5557 the wicked^H7563 for their wickedness^H7451.¹³Whoso stoppeth^H331 his ears^H241 at the cry^H2201 of the poor^H1800, he also shall cry^H7121 himself, but shall not be heard^H6030.¹⁴A gift^H4976 in secret^H5643 pacifieth^H3711 anger^H639: and a reward^H7810 in the bosom^H2436 strong^H5794 wrath^H2534.¹⁵It is joy^H8057 to the just^H6662 to do^H6213 judgment^H4941: but destruction^H4288 shall be to the workers^H6466 of iniquity^H205.¹⁶The man^H120 that wandereth^H8582 out of the way^H1870 of understanding^H7919 shall remain^H5117 in the congregation^H6951 of the dead^H7496.¹⁷He that loveth^H157 pleasure^H8057 shall be a poor^H4270 man^H376: he that loveth^H157 wine^H3196 and oil^H8081 shall not be rich^H6238.¹⁸The wicked^H7563 shall be a ransom^H3724 for the righteous^H6662, and the transgressor^H898 for the upright^H3477.¹⁹It is better^H2896 to dwell^H3427 in the wilderness^{H776 H4057}, than with a contentious^{H4079 H4066} and an angry^H3708 woman^H802.²⁰There is treasure^H214 to be desired^H2530 and oil^H8081 in the dwelling^H5116 of the wise^H2450; but a foolish^H3684 man^H120 spendeth it up^H1104.²¹He that followeth^H7291 after righteousness^H6666 and mercy^H2617 findeth^H4672 life^H2416, righteousness^H6666, and honour^H3519.²²A wise^H2450 man scaleth^H5927 the city^H5892 of the mighty^H1368, and casteth down^H3381 the strength^H5797 of the confidence^H4009 thereof.²³Whoso keepeth^H8104 his mouth^H6310 and his tongue^H3956 keepeth^H8104 his soul^H5315 from troubles^H6869.²⁴Proud^H2086 and haughty^H3093 scorner^H3887 is his name^H8034, who dealeth^H6213 in proud^H2087 wrath^H5678.²⁵The desire^H8378 of the slothful^H6102 killeth^H4191 him; for his hands^H3027 refuse^H3985 to labour^H6213.²⁶He coveteth^H183 greedily^H8378 all the day^H3117 long: but the righteous^H6662 giveth^H5414 and spareth^H2820 not.²⁷The sacrifice^H2077 of the wicked^H7563 is abomination^H8441: how much more, when he bringeth^H935 it with a wicked mind^H2154?²⁸A false^H3577 witness^H5707 shall perish^H6: but the man^H376 that heareth^H8085 speaketh^H1696 constantly^H5331.²⁹A wicked^H7563 man^H376 hardeneth^H5810 his face^H6440: but as for the upright^H3477, he directeth^{H995 H3559} his way^H1870.³⁰There is no wisdom^H2451 nor understanding^H8394 nor counsel^H6098 against the LORD^H3068.³¹The horse^H5483 is prepared^H3559 against the day^H3117 of battle^H4421: but safety^H8668 is of the LORD^H3068.
