Proverbs 21:1-3
Expanded Bible
21 ·The Lord can control a king’s mind as he controls a river [L The heart of a king is a canal/stream in the hand of the Lord];
he can ·direct [turn; incline] it as he pleases.
2 ·You may believe you are doing right [L Every person’s path seems right/straight in their own eyes],
but the Lord ·judges your reasons [L weighs your heart].
3 Doing what is ·right [righteous] and ·fair [just]
is more ·important [preferable] to the Lord than sacrifices [1 Sam. 15:22; Is. 1:11–17; Hos. 6:6; Mic. 6:6–8].
