Proverbs 20:24-30 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

24. The steps of a man are from Jehovah; and how can a man understand his own way?

25. It is a snare to a man rashly to say, It is hallowed, and after vows to make inquiry.

26. A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.

27. Man's spirit is the lamp of Jehovah, searching all the inner parts of the belly.

28. Mercy and truth preserve the king; and he upholdeth his throne by mercy.

29. The glory of young men is their strength; and the beauty of old men is the grey head.

30. Wounding stripes purge away evil, and strokes purge the inner parts of the belly.
