Proverbs 20:27-30

27The 12spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, Searching all the 3innermost parts of his being.284Loyalty and 5truth preserve the king, And he upholds his throne by 6righteousness.29The glory of young men is their strength, And the 78honor of old men is their gray hair.309Stripes that wound scour away evil, And strokes reach the 10innermost parts.
