Yet another Old Testament passage trashed by modernist revisions.
Correctly translated:

A wise man’s heart leads him rightly,
but a fool’s heart leads him astray;


The phrase has nothing to do with left or right.

Gotta love the hypocrisy of "religious Republicans." Many support
the right to carry assault weapons and are pro-war, and ignore the fact
that the New Testament depicts their saviour as a liberal who was
against capitalism and violence.

Ahh, religion.
