Is there any reason other than warping the context of the verse that you think this?
It just says "things". It doesn't say whether those "things" are physical or non-physical in the verse. In my previous post, I simply explained why "evil" and "sin" are not typically thought of as "things"*. I haven't said anything about the context of the verse (and neither have you) - I would hate to have to resort to "explaining away" by suggesting that the verses before and after Proverbs 16:4 might actually help you to understand what "things" refers to, let alone going to such desperate lengths as to discussing other translations and the Hebrew to find out more information about the verse.

*If you want to present a Biblical argument for the existence of a Platonic realm of moral properties and states of affairs, be my guest.
