Proverbs 16:1-5
View Full Chapter
1To humans belong the plans of the heart, but from the LORD comes the proper answer of the tongue.
2All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the LORD .
3Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
4The LORD works out everything to its proper end— even the wicked for a day of disaster.
5The LORD detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished.
