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 the treacherous 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 the treacherous shall be taken in their own iniquity.
7
When a wicked man dieth, [his] expectation shall perish; And the hope of iniquity perisheth.
8
The righteous is delivered out of trouble, And the wicked cometh in his stead.
9
With his mouth the godless man destroyeth his neighbor; But through knowledge shall the righteous be delivered.
10
When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth; And when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11
By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted; But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12
He that despiseth his neighbor is void of wisdom; But a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
