1. A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.
2. When pride comes, then comes 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 delivers 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 lust.
7. When a wicked man dies, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perishes.
8. The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked comes in his stead.
9. A hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
