Proverbs 20:24-30
-
24 Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?
-
25 It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
-
26 A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
-
27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
-
28 Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
-
29 The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
-
30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
