Proverbs 16
- 1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, [are] from the LORD.
- 2 All the ways of a man [are] clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits.
- 3 Commit thy works to the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.
- 4 The LORD hath made all [things] for himself: yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.
- 5 Every one [that is] proud in heart [is] an abomination to the LORD: [though] hand [join] in hand, he shall not be unpunished.
- 6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD [men] depart from evil.
- 7 When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
- 8 Better [is] a little with righteousness, than great revenues without right.
- 9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
- 10 A divine sentence [is] in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
- 11 A just weight and balance [are] the LORD'S: all the weights of the bag [are] his work.
- 12 [It is] an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
- 13 Righteous lips [are] the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right.
- 14 The wrath of a king [is as] messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
- 15 In the light of a king's countenance [is] life; and his favor [is] as a cloud of the latter rain.
- 16 How much better [is it] to get wisdom than gold? and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver?
- 17 The highway of the upright [is] to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
- 18 Pride [goeth] before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
- 19 Better [it is to be] of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
- 20 He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoever trusteth in the LORD, happy [is] he.
- 21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
- 22 Understanding [is] a well-spring of life to him that hath it: but the instruction of fools [is] folly.
- 23 The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.
- 24 Pleasant words [are as] a honey-comb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
- 25 There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end of it [is] the ways of death.
- 26 He that laboreth laboreth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him.
- 27 An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips [there is] as a burning fire.
- 28 A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.
- 29 A violent man enticeth his neighbor, and leadeth him into the way [that is] not good.
- 30 He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
- 31 The hoary head [is] a crown of glory, [if] it is found in the way of righteousness.
- 32 [He that is] slow to anger [is] better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit, than he that taketh a city.
- 33 The lot is cast into the lap: but the whole disposing of it [is] from the LORD.

Webster Bible Electronic Format.

February 1992
Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.
I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.- Direction: LTR
