Verse 19 is found in chapter 16 of Proverbs. The section focuses on government, pride, humility, and the power of words. Kings should hate wickedness and establish their authority through righteousness. Pride goes before destruction, while humility precedes honor. The heart may plan its way, but the Lord directs the steps; this statement summarizes one of the central tensions of biblical wisdom.
