Proverbs 16:9-11
Wycliffe Bible
9 The heart of a man shall dispose his way; but it pertaineth to the Lord to (ad)dress his steps. (A person’s heart shall ordain his way; but it pertaineth to the Lord to direct his steps.)
10 Divining is in the lips of a king; his mouth shall not err in doom. (The king speaketh with divine authority; his mouth shall not err in any judgement.)
11 The dooms of the Lord be weight and balance; and his works be all the stones of the world. (The Lord’s justice be equal weights and an honest balance; yea, each of the stones in the world is his own work.)

but the Lord establishes their steps.(A)
10 The lips of a king speak as an oracle,
and his mouth does not betray justice.(B)

all the weights in the bag are of his making.(C)
