8 ¹A king who sits on the throne of judgment ²winnows all evil with his eyes.

9 ³Who can say, "I have made my heart pure; I am clean from my sin"?

10 ⁴Unequal^a weights and unequal measures are both alike an abomination to the LORD.

11 Even a child ⁵makes himself known by his acts, by whether his conduct is pure and upright.^b

12 ⁶The hearing ear and the seeing eye, ⁷the LORD has made them both.

13 ⁸Love not sleep, lest you ⁹come to poverty; open your eyes, and you will have ¹⁰plenty of bread.

14 "Bad, bad," says the buyer, but when he goes away, then he boasts.

15 There is gold and abundance of ¹¹costly stones, ¹²but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

16 ¹³Take a man's garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and ¹⁴hold it in pledge when he puts up security for foreigners.^c

17 ¹⁵Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, but afterward his mouth will be full of ¹⁶gravel.

18 ¹⁷Plans are established by counsel; by ¹⁸wise guidance ¹⁹wage war.

19 Whoever ²⁰goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with ²¹a simple babbler.^d

20 ²²If one curses his father or his mother, ²³his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.

21 ²⁴An inheritance gained hastily in the beginning will not be blessed in the end.

22 Do not say, ²⁵"I will repay evil"; ²⁶wait for the LORD, and he will deliver you.

23 ²⁷Unequal weights are an abomination to the LORD, and ²⁸false scales are not good.

24 A man's ²⁹steps are from the LORD; how then can man understand his way?

25 It is a snare to say rashly, "It is holy," and to reflect only ³⁰after making vows.

26 A wise king ³¹winnows the wicked and drives ³²the wheel over them.

27 ³³The spirit^e of man is the lamp of the LORD, ³⁴searching all ³⁵his innermost parts.

28 ³⁶Steadfast love and faithfulness preserve the king, and by steadfast love his ³⁷throne is upheld.

29 The glory of young men is their strength, but ³⁸the splendor of old men is their gray hair.

30 ³⁹Blows that wound cleanse away evil; strokes make clean ⁴⁰the innermost parts.
