Proverbs 21:1-4 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. A king’s heart is like streams of water in the Lord’s hand:He directs it wherever He chooses.

2. All a man’s ways seem right to him,but the Lord evaluates the motives.

3. Doing what is righteous and justis more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

4. The lamp that guides the wicked —haughty eyes and an arrogant heart — is sin.
