Proverbs 20:24-26

Modern English Version

²⁴ Man’s goings are of the Lord;
    how can a man then understand his own way?

²⁵ It is a snare to the man who dedicates rashly that which is holy,
    and after the vows to make inquiry.

²⁶ A wise king sifts out the wicked,
    and drives the threshing wheel over them.
