Berean Standard Bible
“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.”
This saying appears in the middle of a chapter that contrasts the wise and the foolish, and it is repeated almost word for word in Proverbs 16. The repetition signals how important the teachers considered it.
