Proverbs 16:5
King James VersionSource notes
“Every one proud in heart an abomination to the LORD: hand in hand, he shall not be unpunished.”
Context
2All the ways of a man clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits.
3Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.
4The LORD hath made all for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
5Every one proud in heart an abomination to the LORD: hand in hand, he shall not be unpunished.
6By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD depart from evil.
7When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8Better a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.
