The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of Yahweh;
He turns it wherever He pleases.
Every man’s way is right in his own eyes,
But Yahweh weighs the hearts.
To do righteousness and justice
Is chosen by Yahweh over sacrifice.

He who pursues righteousness and lovingkindness
Finds life, righteousness, and glory.
•••
There is no wisdom, there is no discernment
And there is no counsel against Yahweh.
