Proverbs 21:2-4
GOD’S WORD Translation
2 A person thinks everything he does is right,
but the Lord weighs hearts.
3 Doing what is right and fair
is more acceptable to the Lord than offering a sacrifice.
4 A conceited look and an arrogant attitude,
which are the lamps of wicked people, are sins.
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.
