The LORD Sees Every Heart: Wise Speech, Teachable Correction, and the Path of Life

The chapter moves through speech and correction, worship and divine scrutiny, the heart and knowledge, fear of the LORD and household peace, counsel and timely words, the upward path of life, the LORD's opposition to pride and greed, and the final union of correction, understanding, fear of the LORD, humility, and honor.
