A false balance [is] abomination to the LORD: but a just weight [is] his delight.
[When] pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly [is] wisdom.
The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in [their own] naughtiness.
When a wicked man dieth, [his] expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust [men] perisheth.
The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
An hypocrite with [his] mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, [there is] shouting.
