Proverbs 20:24-26

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁴ All our steps are ordered by the Lord;
    how then can we understand our own ways?
²⁵ It is a snare for one to say rashly, “It is holy,”
    and begin to reflect only after making a vow.
²⁶ A wise king winnows the wicked,
    and drives the wheel over them.
