Proverbs 20:26
24 A man’s steps are from the LORD, so how can anyone understand his own way?
25 It is a trap for a man to dedicate something rashly, only later to reconsider his vows.
A wise king separates out the wicked and drives the threshing wheel over them.
27 The spirit of a man is the lamp of the LORD, searching out his inmost being.
28 Loving devotion and faithfulness preserve a king; by these he maintains his throne.
