Proverbs 20:27-30

27The spirit of man is the candle of Yhwh, searching all the inward parts of the belly.1

28Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.

29The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.

30The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.2
