Proverbs 21 (résumé): The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord

Progressing with Solomon's pithy sayings Proverbs 21 says: all a man's ways seem right to him but the Lord weighs the heart... better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife!... if a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered... better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and ill-tempered wife... in the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has... there is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord... the horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the Lord.
