1 A false 4820 balance 3976 is abomination 8441 to the LORD 3068: but a just 8003 weight 68 is his delight 7522.
2 When pride 2087 cometh 935, then cometh 935 shame 7036: but with the lowly 6800 is wisdom 2451.
3 The integrity 8538 of the upright 3477 shall guide 5148 them: but the perverseness 5558 of transgressors 898 shall destroy 7703 7703 them.
4 Riches 1952 profit 3276 not in the day 3117 of wrath 5678: but righteousness 6666 delivereth 5337 from death 4194.
5 The righteousness 6666 of the perfect 8549 shall direct 3474 his way 1870: but the wicked 7563 shall fall 5307 by his own wickedness 7564.
6 The righteousness 6666 of the upright 3477 shall deliver 5337 them: but transgressors 898 shall be taken 3920 in their own naughtiness 1942.
7 When a wicked 7563 man 120 dieth 4194, his expectation 8615 shall perish 6: and the hope 8431 of unjust 205 men perisheth 6.
8 The righteous 6662 is delivered out 2502 of trouble 6869, and the wicked 7563 cometh 935 in his stead.
9 An hypocrite 2611 with his mouth 6310 destroyeth 7843 his neighbour 7453: but through knowledge 1847 shall the just 6662 be delivered 2502.
10 When it goeth well 2898 with the righteous 6662, the city 7151 rejoiceth 5970: and when the wicked 7563 perish 6, there is shouting 7440.
11 By the blessing 1293 of the upright 3477 the city 7176 is exalted 7311: but it is overthrown 2040 by the mouth 6310 of the wicked 7563.
12 He that is void 2638 of wisdom 3820 despiseth 936 his neighbour 7453: but a man 376 of understanding 8394 holdeth his peace 2790.
13 A talebearer 1980 7400 revealeth 1540 secrets 5475: but he that is of a faithful 539 spirit 7307 concealeth 3680 the matter 1697.
14 Where no counsel 8458 is, the people 5971 fall 5307: but in the multitude 7230 of counsellors 3289 there is safety 8668.
15 He that is surety 6148 for a stranger 2114 shall smart 7321 7451 for it: and he that hateth 8130 suretiship 8628 is sure 982.
16 A gracious 2580 woman 802 retaineth 8551 honour 3519: and strong 6184 men retain 8551 riches 6239.
17 The merciful 2617 man 376 doeth good 1580 to his own soul 5315: but he that is cruel 394 troubleth 5916 his own flesh 7607.
18 The wicked 7563 worketh 6213 a deceitful 8267 work 6468: but to him that soweth 2232 righteousness 6666 shall be a sure 571 reward 7938.
19 As righteousness 6666 tendeth to life 2416: so he that pursueth 7291 evil 7451 pursueth it to his own death 4194.
20 They that are of a froward 6141 heart 3820 are abomination 8441 to the LORD 3068: but such as are upright 8549 in their way 1870 are his delight 7522.
21 Though hand 3027 join in hand 3027, the wicked 7451 shall not be unpunished 5352: but the seed 2233 of the righteous 6662 shall be delivered 4422.
22 As a jewel 5141 of gold 2091 in a swine's 2386 snout 639, so is a fair 3303 woman 802 which is without 5493 discretion 2940.
23 The desire 8378 of the righteous 6662 is only good 2896: but the expectation 8615 of the wicked 7563 is wrath 5678.
24 There is 3426 that scattereth 6340, and yet increaseth 3254; and there is that withholdeth 2820 more than is meet 3476, but it tendeth to poverty 4270.
25 The liberal 1293 soul 5315 shall be made fat 1878: and he that watereth 7301 shall be watered 3384 also himself.
26 He that withholdeth 4513 corn 1250, the people 3816 shall curse 5344 him: but blessing 1293 shall be upon the head 7218 of him that selleth 7666 it.
27 He that diligently seeketh 7836 good 2896 procureth 1245 favour 7522: but he that seeketh 1875 mischief 7451, it shall come 935 unto him.
28 He that trusteth 982 in his riches 6239 shall fall 5307: but the righteous 6662 shall flourish 6524 as a branch 5929.
29 He that troubleth 5916 his own house 1004 shall inherit 5157 the wind 7307: and the fool 191 shall be servant 5650 to the wise 2450 of heart 3820.
30 The fruit 6529 of the righteous 6662 is a tree 6086 of life 2416; and he that winneth 3947 souls 5315 is wise 2450.
31 Behold, the righteous 6662 shall be recompensed 7999 in the earth 776: much more the wicked 7563 and the sinner 2398.
