Proverbs 16:4 Context
2All the wayes of a man are cleane in his owne eyes: but the Lord weigheth the spirits. 3Commit thy workes vnto the Lord, and thy thoughts shalbe established. 4The Lord hath made all things for himselfe: yea, euen the wicked for the day of euill. 5Euery one that is proud in heart, is an abomination to the Lord: though hand ioyne in hand, he shall not be vnpunished. 6By mercy and trueth iniquitie is purged: and by the feare of the Lord, men depart from euill.
