This chapter is rich in proverbs on the LORD’s sovereignty over human plans: “The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps,” and “commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established.” It warns that “pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall,” and commends slowness to anger and gracious words.
