Proverbs 21:3-8 American Standard Version (ASV)

3. To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to Jehovah than sacrifice.

4. A high look, and a proud heart, Even the lamp of the wicked, is sin.

5. The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; But every one that is hasty hasteth only to want.

6. The getting of treasures by a lying tongue Is a vapor driven to and fro by them that seek death.

7. The violence of the wicked shall sweep them away, Because they refuse to do justice.

8. The way of him that is laden with guilt is exceeding crooked; But as for the pure, his work is right.
