“To do righteousness and justice is more desirable to the LORD than sacrifice.”
Proverbs 21:3 (BSB)
Context Reading
1The king’s heart is a waterway in the hand of the LORD; He directs it where He pleases. 2All a man’s ways seem right to him, but the LORD weighs the heart. 3To do righteousness and justice is more desirable to the LORD than sacrifice. 4Haughty eyes and a proud heart — the guides of the wicked — are sin. 5The plans of the diligent bring plenty, as surely as haste leads to poverty.
