King James Version with Apocrypha
"The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will."
— Proverbs 21:1, King James Version with Apocrypha
“The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.”
“The king’s heart is in the hand of Jehovah as the watercourses: He turneth it whithersoever he will. ”
“The king's heart is in Yahweh's hand like the watercourses. He turns it wherever he desires.”
“The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD like channels of water; he turns it wherever he wants.”
“As the divisions of waters, so the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord: whithersoever he will, he shall turn it.”
“The king's heart in the hands of the Lord is like the water streams, and by him it is turned in any direction at his pleasure.”
The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.
To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.
