Proverbs 21:4 - John Wesley's Notes

Proverbs 21:4

Compare all

2 ^aEvery way of a man is right in his own eyes,
^bBut the Lord weighs the hearts.

3 ^aTo do righteousness and justice
Is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

4 ^aA haughty look, a proud heart,
And the¹ plowing of the wicked are sin.

5 ^aThe plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty,
But those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty.

6 ^aGetting treasures by a lying tongue
¹Is the fleeting fantasy of those who seek death.

7 The violence of the wicked will¹ destroy them,
Because they refuse to do justice.

8 The way of¹ a guilty man is perverse;
But as for the pure, his work is right.
