New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Proverbs 20
30 Stripes that wound scour away evil, And strokes reach the innermost parts.
Proverbs 21
1 The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the Lord; He turns it wherever He wishes.
2 Every man’s way is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.
3 To do righteousness and justice Is desired by the Lord more than sacrifice.
4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart, The lamp of the wicked, is sin.
5 The plans of the diligent lead surely to advantage, But everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.
6 The acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue Is a fleeting vapor, the pursuit of death.
7 The violence of the wicked will drag them away, Because they refuse to act with justice.
8 The way of a guilty man is crooked, But as for the pure, his conduct is upright.
9 It is better to live in a corner of a roof Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
10 The soul of the wicked desires evil; His neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
