Proverbs 21:2-4
Common English Bible
2 Everyone’s path is straight in their own eyes,
but the Lord weighs the heart.
3 Acting with righteousness and justice
is more valued by the Lord than sacrifice.
4 Prideful eyes, an arrogant heart, and
the lamp of the wicked are all sinful.
Proverbs 21:2-4
New International Version
2 A person may think their own ways are right,
but the Lord weighs the heart.(A)
3 To do what is right and just
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.(B)
4 Haughty eyes(C) and a proud heart—
the unplowed field of the wicked—produce sin.
