11:1 A
false
balance
is
an
abomination
to
Jehovah;
But
a
just
weight
is
his
delight.
11:2 When
pride
cometh,
then
cometh
shame;
But
with
the
lowly
is
wisdom.
11:3 The
integrity
of
the
upright
shall
guide
them;
But
the
perverseness
of
the
treacherous
shall
destroy
them.
11:4 Riches
profit
not
in
the
day
of
wrath;
But
righteousness
delivereth
from
death.
11:5 The
righteousness
of
the
perfect
shall
direct
his
way;
But
the
wicked
shall
fall
by
his
own
wickedness.
11:6 The
righteousness
of
the
upright
shall
deliver
them;
But
the
treacherous
shall
be
taken
in
their
own
iniquity.
11:7 When
a
wicked
man
dieth,
[his]
expectation
shall
perish;
And
the
hope
of
iniquity
perisheth.
11:8 The
righteous
is
delivered
out
of
trouble,
And
the
wicked
cometh
in
his
stead.
11:9 With
his
mouth
the
godless
man
destroyeth
his
neighbor;
But
through
knowledge
shall
the
righteous
be
delivered.
11:10 When
it
goeth
well
with
the
righteous,
the
city
rejoiceth;
And
when
the
wicked
perish,
there
is
shouting.
11:11 By
the
blessing
of
the
upright
the
city
is
exalted;
But
it
is
overthrown
by
the
mouth
of
the
wicked.
11:12 He
that
despiseth
his
neighbor
is
void
of
wisdom;
But
a
man
of
understanding
holdeth
his
peace.
11:13 He
that
goeth
about
as
a
tale-bearer
revealeth
secrets;
But
he
that
is
of
a
faithful
spirit
concealeth
a
matter.
11:14 Where
no
wise
guidance
is,
the
people
falleth;
But
in
the
multitude
of
counsellors
there
is
safety.
11:15 He
that
is
surety
for
a
stranger
shall
smart
for
it;
But
he
that
hateth
suretyship
is
secure.
11:16 A
gracious
woman
obtaineth
honor;
And
violent
men
obtain
riches.
11:17 The
merciful
man
doeth
good
to
his
own
soul;
But
he
that
is
cruel
troubleth
his
own
flesh.
11:18 The
wicked
earneth
deceitful
wages;
But
he
that
soweth
righteousness
[hath]
a
sure
reward.
11:19 He
that
is
stedfast
in
righteousness
[shall
attain]
unto
life;
And
he
that
pursueth
evil
[doeth
it]
to
his
own
death.
11:20 They
that
are
perverse
in
heart
are
an
abomination
to
Jehovah;
But
such
as
are
perfect
in
[their]
way
are
his
delight.
11:21 [Though]
hand
[join]
in
hand,
the
evil
man
shall
not
be
unpunished;
But
the
seed
of
the
righteous
shall
be
delivered.
11:22 [As]
a
ring
of
gold
in
a
swine's
snout,
[So
is]
a
fair
woman
that
is
without
discretion.
11:23 The
desire
of
the
righteous
is
only
good;
[But]
the
expectation
of
the
wicked
is
wrath.
11:24 There
is
that
scattereth,
and
increaseth
yet
more;
And
there
is
that
withholdeth
more
than
is
meet,
but
[it
tendeth]
only
to
want.
11:25 The
liberal
soul
shall
be
made
fat;
And
he
that
watereth
shall
be
watered
also
himself.
11:26 He
that
withholdeth
grain,
the
people
shall
curse
him;
But
blessing
shall
be
upon
the
head
of
him
that
selleth
it.
11:27 He
that
diligently
seeketh
good
seeketh
favor;
But
he
that
searcheth
after
evil,
it
shall
come
unto
him.
11:28 He
that
trusteth
in
his
riches
shall
fall;
But
the
righteous
shall
flourish
as
the
green
leaf.
11:29 He
that
troubleth
his
own
house
shall
inherit
the
wind;
And
the
foolish
shall
be
servant
to
the
wise
of
heart.
11:30 The
fruit
of
the
righteous
is
a
tree
of
life;
And
he
that
is
wise
winneth
souls.
11:31 Behold,
the
righteous
shall
be
recompensed
in
the
earth:
How
much
more
the
wicked
and
the
sinner!
