A false{H4820} balance{H3976} is an abomination{H8441} to Jehovah;{H3068} But a just{H8003} weight{H68} is his delight.{H7522}

When pride{H2087} cometh,{H935} then cometh{H935} shame;{H7036} But with the lowly{H6800} is wisdom.{H2451}

The integrity{H8538} of the upright{H3477} shall guide{H5148} them; But the perverseness{H5558} of the treacherous{H898} shall destroy{H7703} them.

Riches{H1952} profit{H3276} not in the day{H3117} of wrath;{H5678} But righteousness{H6666} delivereth{H5337} from death.{H4194}

The righteousness{H6666} of the perfect{H8549} shall direct{H3474} his way;{H1870} But the wicked{H7563} shall fall{H5307} by his own wickedness.{H7564}

The righteousness{H6666} of the upright{H3477} shall deliver{H5337} them; But the treacherous{H898} shall be taken{H3920} in their own iniquity.{H1942}

When a wicked{H7563} man{H120} dieth,{H4194} [his] expectation{H8615} shall perish;{H6} And the hope{H8431} of iniquity{H205} perisheth.{H6}

The righteous{H6662} is delivered out{H2502} of trouble,{H6869} And the wicked{H7563} cometh{H935} in his stead.

With his mouth{H6310} the godless{H2611} man destroyeth{H7843} his neighbor;{H7453} But through knowledge{H1847} shall the righteous{H6662} be delivered.{H2502}

When it goeth well{H2898} with the righteous,{H6662} the city{H7151} rejoiceth;{H5970} And when the wicked{H7563} perish,{H6} there is shouting.{H7440}

By the blessing{H1293} of the upright{H3477} the city{H7176} is exalted;{H7311} But it is overthrown{H2040} by the mouth{H6310} of the wicked.{H7563}

He that despiseth{H936} his neighbor{H7453} is void{H2638} of wisdom;{H3820} But a man{H376} of understanding{H8394} holdeth his peace.{H2790}

He that goeth about as a tale-bearer{H1980} revealeth{H1540} secrets;{H5475} But he that is of a faithful{H539} spirit{H7307} concealeth{H3680} a matter.{H1697}

Where no wise guidance{H8458} is, the people{H5971} falleth;{H5307} But in the multitude{H5971} of counsellors{H3289} there is safety.{H8668}

He that is surety{H6148} for a stranger{H2114} shall smart{H7321} for it; But he that hateth{H8130} suretyship{H8628} is secure.{H982}

A gracious{H2580} woman{H802} obtaineth{H8551} honor;{H3519} And violent{H6184} men obtain{H8551} riches.{H6239}

The merciful{H2617} man{H376} doeth good{H1580} to his own soul;{H5315} But he that is cruel{H394} troubleth{H5916} his own flesh.{H7607}

The wicked{H7563} earneth{H6213} deceitful{H8267} wages;{H6468} But he that soweth{H2232} righteousness{H6666} [hath] a sure{H571} reward.{H7938}

He that is stedfast in righteousness{H6666} [shall attain] unto life;{H2416} And he that pursueth{H7291} evil{H7451} [doeth it] to his own death.{H4194}

They that are perverse{H6141} in heart{H3820} are an abomination{H8441} to Jehovah;{H3068} But such as are perfect{H8549} in [their] way{H1870} are his delight.{H7522}

[Though] hand{H3027} [join] in hand,{H3027} the evil{H7451} man shall not be unpunished;{H5352} But the seed{H2233} of the righteous{H6662} shall be delivered.{H4422}

[ As] a ring{H5141} of gold{H2091} in a swine's{H2386} snout,{H639} [So is] a fair{H3303} woman{H802} that is without{H5493} discretion.{H2940}

The desire{H8378} of the righteous{H6662} is only good;{H2896} [But] the expectation{H8615} of the wicked{H7563} is wrath.{H5678}

There is{H3426} that scattereth,{H6340} and increaseth{H3254} yet more; And there is that withholdeth{H2820} more than is meet,{H3476} but [it tendeth] only to want.{H4270}

The liberal{H1293} soul{H5315} shall be made fat;{H1878} And he that watereth{H7301} shall be watered{H3384} also himself.

He that withholdeth{H4513} grain,{H1250} the people{H3816} shall curse{H5344} him; But blessing{H1293} shall be upon the head{H7218} of him that selleth{H7666} it.

He that diligently seeketh{H7836} good{H2896} seeketh{H1875} favor;{H7522} But he that searcheth{H1875} after evil,{H7451} it shall come{H935} unto him.

He that trusteth{H982} in his riches{H6239} shall fall;{H5307} But the righteous{H6662} shall flourish{H6524} as the green{H5929} leaf.

He that troubleth{H5916} his own house{H1004} shall inherit{H5157} the wind;{H7307} And the foolish{H191} shall be servant{H5650} to the wise{H2450} of heart.{H3820}

The fruit{H6529} of the righteous{H6662} is a tree{H6086} of life;{H2416} And he that is wise{H2450} winneth{H3947} souls.{H5315}

Behold, the righteous{H6662} shall be recompensed{H7999} in the earth:{H776} How much more the wicked{H7563} and the sinner!{H2398}
