²¹ For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord,
    and He ponders all his goings.

³ The eyes of the Lord are in every place,
    keeping watch on the evil and the good.

¹¹ Death and destruction are before the Lord;
    so how much more the hearts of the children of men.

² All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes,
    but the Lord weighs the spirit.

³ The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold,
    but the Lord tries the hearts.

²⁷ The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord,
    searching all the inward parts of the heart.

² Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,
    but the Lord weighs the hearts.
