Proverbs 16

1

but the answer of the tongue is from Yahweh.

2

but Yahweh weighs the motives.

3

and your plans shall succeed.

4

yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.

5

they shall certainly not be unpunished.

6

By the fear of Yahweh men depart from evil.

7

he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

8

than great revenues with injustice.

9

but Yahweh directs his steps.

10

He shall not betray his mouth.

11

all the weights in the bag are his work.

12

for the throne is established by righteousness.

13

They value one who speaks the truth.

14

but a wise man will pacify it.

15

His favor is like a cloud of the spring rain.

16

Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.

17

He who keeps his way preserves his soul.

18

and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

19

than to divide the plunder with the proud.

20

Whoever trusts in Yahweh is blessed.

21

Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.

22

but the punishment of fools is their folly.

23

and adds learning to his lips.

24

sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

25

but in the end it leads to death.

26

for his mouth urges him on.

27

His speech is like a scorching fire.

28

A whisperer separates close friends.

29

and leads him in a way that is not good.

30

one who compresses his lips, is bent on evil.

31

It is attained by a life of righteousness.

32

one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.

33

but its every decision is from Yahweh.
