but.
 Men of the world confess that “Honesty is the best policy.” For the man of God, uprightness is not policy, but the delight of his heart; and by it he brings even wicked men to acknowledge that his ways are above reproach, as was manifested in Joseph, after being so sorely tried (Gen. 40 and 41). On the contrary, he whose ways are perverse, though he may cover them for a time, must inevitably be discovered at last. See Ziba’s case (2 Sam. 16:1-4; 19:24-27). (Proverbs Ten by H.A. Ironside)
