Proverbs 20:8-11
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 20

8A king who sits on the throne of justice Disperses all evil with his eyes. 9Who can say, 'I have cleansed my heart, I am pure from my sin'? 10 Differing weights and differing measures, Both of them are abominable to the Lord. 11It is by his deeds that a boy distinguishes himself, If his conduct is pure and right.
King James Version

11Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
