Proverbs 20:25

²³ Unequal weights are detestable to the LORD, and dishonest scales are no good.

²⁴ A man’s steps are from the LORD, so how can anyone understand his own way?

It is a trap for a man to dedicate something rashly, only later to reconsider his vows.

²⁶ 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.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
