KJV is misleading on several instances, one of the worst instances is when it fails to differentiate "to kill" from "to murder" https://biblehub.com/deuteronomy/5-17.htm
Amplified Bible https://biblehub.com/amp/proverbs/16.htm
4The LORD has made everything for its own purpose, Even the wicked [according to their role] for the day of evil. 5Everyone who is proud and arrogant in heart is disgusting and exceedingly offensive to the LORD; Be assured he will not go unpunished. 6By mercy and lovingkindness and truth [not superficial ritual] wickedness is cleansed from the heart, And by the fear of the LORD one avoids evil. 7When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. 8Better is a little with righteousness Than great income [gained] with injustice.
Aramaic Bible in Plain English / Peshitta Holy Bible Translated https://biblehub.com/hpbt/proverbs/16.htm
4All the works of LORD JEHOVAH are for those that submit to him, and the evil are kept for the day of evil. 5Everyone that is exalted in his heart is defiled before LORD JEHOVAH, and he that stretches his hand against his neighbor will not be spared from evil. 6The evil one is forgiven by grace and by truth and the awe of LORD JEHOVAH turns aside from evil. 7The ways of a man are by the pleasure of LORD JEHOVAH; he also will repay his enemies. 8Better is a little in righteousness than a multitude of gain which is not by justice.
