In context

23 An abomination to Yahweh, are divers weights, and, deceptive balances, are not good.

24 From Yahweh, are a man’s steps, a son of earth, then—how can he discern his way?

25 It is a snare to a man, that he should rashly cry Holy! and, after making vows, to reflect!

26 A wise king, winnoweth out the lawless, when he hath turned over them the wheel.

27 The lamp of Yahweh, is the spirit of a son of earth, searching all the chambers of the inner man.

28 Lovingkindness and faithfulness, will guard a king,—therefore should he support, with lovingkindness, his throne.

29 The beauty of young men, is their strength, and, the ornament of old men, a hoary head.
