Proverbs Chapter 16 - King James Strong Number Version

1: The preparations <H4633> of the heart <H3820> in man, <H0120> and the answer <H4617> of the tongue, <H3956> [is] from the LORD. <H3068>
2: All the ways <H1870> of a man <H0376> [are] clean <H2134> in his own eyes; <H5869> but the LORD <H3068> weigheth <H8505> the spirits. <H7307>
3: Commit <H1556> thy works <H4639> unto the LORD, <H3068> and thy thoughts <H4284> shall be established. <H3559>
4: The LORD <H3068> hath made <H6466> all [things] for himself: <H4617> yea, even the wicked <H7563> for the day <H3117> of evil. <H7451>
5: Every one [that is] proud <H1362> in heart <H3820> [is] an abomination <H8441> to the LORD: <H3068> [though] hand <H3027> [join] in hand, <H3027> he shall not be unpunished. <H5352>
6: By mercy <H2617> and truth <H0571> iniquity <H5771> is purged: <H3722> and by the fear <H3374> of the LORD <H3068> [men] depart <H5493> from evil. <H7451>
7: When a man's <H0376> ways <H1870> please <H7521> the LORD, <H3068> he maketh even his enemies <H0341> to be at peace <H7999> with him.
8: Better <H2896> [is] a little <H4592> with righteousness <H6666> than great <H7230> revenues <H8393> without right. <H4941>
9: A man's <H0120> heart <H3820> deviseth <H2803> his way: <H1870> but the LORD <H3068> directeth <H3559> his steps. <H6806>
10: A divine sentence <H7081> [is] in the lips <H8193> of the king: <H4428> his mouth <H6310> transgresseth <H4603> not in judgment. <H4941>
11: A just <H4941> weight <H6425> and balance <H3976> [are] the LORD'S: <H3068> all the weights <H0068> of the bag <H3599> [are] his work. <H4639>
12: [It is] an abomination <H8441> to kings <H4428> to commit <H6213> wickedness: <H7562> for the throne <H3678> is established <H3559> by righteousness.
13: Righteous <H6664> lips <H8193> [are] the delight <H7522> of kings; <H4428> and they love <H0157> him that speaketh <H1696> right. <H3477>
14: The wrath <H2534> of a king <H4428> [is as] messengers <H4397> of death: <H4194> but a wise <H2450> man <H0376> will pacify <H3722> it.
15: In the light <H0216> of the king's <H4428> countenance <H6440> [is] life; <H2416> and his favour <H7522> [is] as a cloud <H5645> of the latter rain. <H4456>
16: How much better <H2896> [is it] to get <H7069> wisdom <H2451> than gold! <H2742> and to get <H7069> understanding <H0998> rather to be chosen <H0977> than silver! <H3701>
17: The highway <H4546> of the upright <H3477> [is] to depart <H5493> from evil: <H7451> he that keepeth <H5341> his way <H1870> preserveth <H8104> his soul. <H5315>
18: Pride <H1347> [goeth] before <H6440> destruction, <H7667> and an haughty <H1363> spirit <H7307> before <H6440> a fall. <H3783>
19: Better <H2896> [it is to be] of an humble <H8217> spirit <H7307> with the lowly, <H6035> <H6041> than to divide <H2505> the spoil <H7998> with the proud. <H1343>
20: He that handleth a matter <H1697> wisely <H7919> shall find <H4672> good: <H2896> and whoso trusteth <H0982> in the LORD, <H3068> happy <H0835> [is] he.
21: The wise <H2450> in heart <H3820> shall be called <H7121> prudent: <H0995> and the sweetness <H4986> of the lips <H8193> increaseth <H3254> learning. <H3948>
22: Understanding <H7922> [is] a wellspring <H4726> of life <H2416> unto him that hath <H1167> it: but the instruction <H4148> of fools <H0191> [is] folly. <H0200>
23: The heart <H3820> of the wise <H2450> teacheth <H7919> his mouth, <H6310> and addeth <H3254> learning <H3948> to his lips. <H8193>
24: Pleasant <H5278> words <H0561> [are as] an honeycomb, <H6688> <H1706> sweet <H4966> to the soul, <H5315> and health <H4832> to the bones. <H6106>
25: There is <H3426> a way <H1870> that seemeth right <H3477> unto <H6440> a man, <H0376> but the end thereof <H0319> [are] the ways <H1870> of death. <H4194>
26: He <H5315> that laboureth <H6001> laboureth <H5998> for himself; for his mouth <H6310> craveth <H0404> it of him.
27: An ungodly <H1100> man <H0376> diggeth <H3738> up evil: <H7451> and in his lips <H8193> [there is] as a burning <H6867> fire. <H0784>
28: A froward <H8419> man <H0376> soweth <H7971> strife: <H4066> and a whisperer <H5372> separateth <H6504> chief friends. <H0441>
29: A violent <H2555> man <H0376> enticeth <H6601> his neighbour, <H7453> and leadeth <H3212> him into the way <H1870> [that is] not good. <H2896>
30: He shutteth <H6095> his eyes <H5869> to devise <H2803> froward things: <H8419> moving <H7169> his lips <H8193> he bringeth evil <H7451> to pass. <H3615>
31: The hoary head <H7872> [is] a crown <H5850> of glory, <H8597> [if] it be found <H4672> in the way <H1870> of righteousness. <H6666>
32: [He that is] slow <H0750> to anger <H0639> [is] better <H2896> than the mighty; <H1368> and he that ruleth <H4910> his spirit <H7307> than he that taketh <H3920> a city. <H5892>
33: The lot <H1486> is cast <H2904> into the lap; <H2436> but the whole disposing <H4941> thereof [is] of the LORD. <H3068>
