For her house sinks down to death
And her tracks lead to the dead;

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.

I will show thee the way of wisdom, and lead thee in the right paths.

Her feet go down to death; her steps lead to Sheol.

That they may lead thee where thou goest, preserve thee when thou art asleep, and that when thou awakest, thou mayest talk of them.

by me, princes lead,
as do nobles and all righteous judges.

I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

Lazy hands bring poverty, but hard-working hands lead to wealth.

Honorable wages lead to life; the salaries of the wicked, to retribution.

The innocent dealing of the just shall lead them; but the unfaithfulness of the despisers shall be their own destruction.

He who trusts in his riches will fall,
But the righteous will flourish like the green leaf.

The words of the wicked lead to bloodshed, but the speech of the upright delivers them.

The diligent hand will rule,
but laziness will lead to forced labor.

A righteous man is careful in dealing with his neighbor,
but the ways of the wicked lead them astray.

A fool’s lips lead to strife,
and his mouth provokes a beating.

The plans of the diligent lead surely to advantage,
But everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.

Oppressing the poor to enrich oneself,
and giving to the rich—both lead only to poverty.

Hear, thou, my son, and be wise, and lead forward, in duty, thy heart.
