5  ⁿTrust in the Lord with all your heart,

and do not lean on your own understanding.

6  In all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will ^omake straight your paths.

22  ^wWithout counsel plans fail,

but with many advisers they succeed.

9  The heart of man plans his way,

but the Lord establishes his steps.

21  ^zMany are the plans in the mind of a man,

but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
