Proverbs 20:25-29 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

25. A man is trapped if he makes a hasty promise to God and only later thinks about what he said.

26. A wise king gets rid of evil people. He runs the threshing wheel over them.

27. The lamp of the Lord searches a man's heart. It searches deep down inside him.

28. Love and truth keep a king safe. Faithful love makes his throne secure.

29. Young men are proud of their strength. Gray hair brings honor to old men.
