Chapter 16
The
preparations
of
the
heart
in
man,
and
the
answere
of
the
tongue,
is
from
the
Lord.
2
All
the
wayes
of
a
man
are
cleane
in
his
owne
eyes:
but
the
Lord
weigheth
the
spirits.
3
Commit
thy
workes
vnto
the
Lord,
and
thy
thoughts
shalbe
established.
4
The
Lord
hath
made
all
things
for
himselfe:
yea,
euen
the
wicked
for
the
day
of
euill.
5
Euery
one
that
is
proud
in
heart,
is
an
abomination
to
the
Lord:
though
hand
ioyne
in
hand,
he
shall
not
be
vnpunished.
6
By
mercy
and
trueth
iniquitie
is
purged:
and
by
the
feare
of
the
Lord,
men
depart
from
euill.
7
When
a
mans
wayes
please
the
Lord,
he
maketh
euen
his
enemies
to
be
at
peace
with
him.
8
Better
is
a
little
with
righteousnesse,
then
great
reuenewes
without
right.
9
A
mans
heart
deuiseth
his
way:
but
the
Lord
directeth
his
steps.
10
A
diuine
sentence
is
in
the
lips
of
the
king:
his
mouth
transgresseth
not
in
iudgement.
11
A
iust
weight
and
ballance
are
the
Lords:
all
the
weights
of
the
bagge
are
his
worke.
12
It
is
an
abomination
to
kings
to
commit
wickednesse:
for
the
throne
is
established
by
righteousnesse.
13
Righteous
lips
are
the
delight
of
kings:
and
they
loue
him
that
speaketh
right.
14
The
wrath
of
a
king
is
as
messengers
of
death:
but
a
wise
man
will
pacifie
it.
15
In
the
light
of
the
kings
countenance
is
life,
and
his
fauour
is
as
a
cloude
of
the
latter
raine.
16
How
much
better
is
it
to
get
wisedome,
then
gold?
and
to
get
vnderstanding,
rather
to
be
chosen
then
siluer?
17
The
high
way
of
the
vpright
is
to
depart
from
euill:
hee
that
keepeth
his
way,
preserueth
his
soule.
18
Pride
goeth
before
destruction:
and
an
hautie
spirit
before
a
fall.
19
Better
it
is
to
be
of
an
humble
spirit
with
the
lowly,
then
to
diuide
the
spoile
with
the
proud.
20
He
that
handleth
a
matter
wisely,
shall
finde
good:
and
who
so
trusteth
in
the
Lord,
happy
is
hee.
21
The
wise
in
heart
shall
be
called
prudent;
and
the
sweetnesse
of
the
lips
increaseth
learning.
22
Understanding
is
a
well-spring
of
life
vnto
him
that
hath
it:
but
the
instruction
of
fooles
is
folly.
23
The
heart
of
the
wise
teacheth
his
mouth,
and
addeth
learning
to
his
lippes.
24
Pleasant
words
are
as
an
honycombe,
sweete
to
the
soule,
and
health
to
the
bones.
25
There
is
a
way
that
seemeth
right
vnto
a
man;
but
the
end
thereof
are
the
wayes
of
death.
26
Hee
that
laboureth,
laboureth
for
himselfe;
for
his
mouth
craueth
it
of
him.
27
An
vngodly
man
diggeth
vp
euill:
and
in
his
lips
there
is
as
a
burning
fire.
28
A
froward
man
soweth
strife;
&
a
whisperer
separateth
chiefe
friends.
29
A
violent
man
enticeth
his
neighbour,
and
leadeth
him
into
the
way
that
is
not
good.
30
He
shutteth
his
eyes
to
deuise
froward
things:
moouing
his
lips
he
bringeth
euill
to
passe.
31
The
hoary
head
is
a
crowne
of
glory,
if
it
be
found
in
the
way
of
righteousnesse.
32
He
that
is
slow
to
anger,
is
better
then
the
mighty:
and
he
that
ruleth
his
spirit,
then
he
that
taketh
a
citie.
33
The
lot
is
cast
into
the
lap:
but
the
whole
disposing
thereof
is
of
the
Lord.
