Proverbs 11:1-8

1 A false balance [is] abomination to the LORD: but a just weight [is] his delight.

2 [When] pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly [is] wisdom.

3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.

5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in [their own] naughtiness.

7 When a wicked man dieth, [his] expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust [men] perisheth.

8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
