The preparations of the heart belong to man, ​​But the answer of the tongue is from the LORD. ​​All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, ​​But the LORD weighs the spirits. ​​Commit your works to the LORD, ​​And your thoughts will be established. The LORD has made all for Himself, ​​Yes, even the wicked for the day of doom. Everyone proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD; ​​Though they join forces, none will go unpunished. ​​In mercy and truth ​​Atonement is provided for iniquity; ​​And by the fear of the LORD one departs from evil. When a man’s ways please the LORD, ​​He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. Better is a little with righteousness, ​​Than vast revenues without justice. ​A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.
- Proverbs 16:1-9
