24
A man's steps are of the Lord; How then can a man understand his own way?
25
It is a snare for a man to devote rashly something as holy, And afterward to reconsider his vows.
26
A wise king sifts out the wicked, And brings the threshing wheel over them.
27
The spirit of a man is the lamp of the Lord, Searching all the inner depths of his heart.
28
Mercy and truth preserve the king, And by lovingkindness he upholds his throne.
29
The glory of young men is their strength, And the splendor of old men is their gray head.
30
Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, As do stripes the inner depths of the heart.
