¹ H4820 A false H3976 balance H8441 is abomination H3068 to the LORD H8003 : but a just H68 weight H7522 is his delight.

² H2087 When pride H935 cometh [H8804]   H935 , then cometh [H8799]   H7036 shame H6800 : but with the lowly [H8803]   H2451 is wisdom.

³ H8538 The integrity H3477 of the upright H5148 shall guide [H8686]   H5558 them: but the perverseness H898 of transgressors [H8802]   H7703 shall destroy [H8799]   [H8675]   H7703   [H8804]   them.

⁴ H1952 Riches H3276 profit [H8686]   H3117 not in the day H5678 of wrath H6666 : but righteousness H5337 delivereth [H8686]   H4194 from death.

⁵ H6666 The righteousness H8549 of the perfect H3474 shall direct [H8762]   H1870 his way H7563 : but the wicked H5307 shall fall [H8799]   H7564 by his own wickedness.

⁶ H6666 The righteousness H3477 of the upright H5337 shall deliver [H8686]   H898 them: but transgressors [H8802]   H3920 shall be taken [H8735]   H1942 in their own naughtiness.

⁷ H7563 When a wicked H120 man H4194 dieth H8615 , his expectation H6 shall perish [H8799]   H8431 : and the hope H205 of unjust H6 men perisheth [H8804]  .

⁸ H6662 The righteous H2502 is delivered out [H8738]   H6869 of trouble H7563 , and the wicked H935 cometh [H8799]   in his stead.

⁹ H2611 An hypocrite H6310 with his mouth H7843 destroyeth [H8686]   H7453 his neighbour H1847 : but through knowledge H6662 shall the just H2502 be delivered [H8735]  .

¹⁰ H2898 When it goeth well H6662 with the righteous H7151 , the city H5970 rejoiceth [H8799]   H7563 : and when the wicked H6 perish [H8800]   H7440 , there is shouting.

¹¹ H1293 By the blessing H3477 of the upright H7176 the city H7311 is exalted [H8799]   H2040 : but it is overthrown [H8735]   H6310 by the mouth H7563 of the wicked.

¹² H2638 He that is void H3820 of wisdom H936 despiseth [H8802]   H7453 his neighbour H376 : but a man H8394 of understanding H2790 holdeth his peace [H8686]  .

¹³ H1980 A talebearer [H8802]   H7400   H1540 revealeth [H8764]   H5475 secrets H539 : but he that is of a faithful [H8738]   H7307 spirit H3680 concealeth [H8764]   H1697 the matter.

¹⁴ H8458 Where no counsel H5971 is, the people H5307 fall [H8799]   H7230 : but in the multitude H3289 of counsellors [H8802]   H8668 there is safety.

¹⁵ H6148 He that is surety [H8804]   H2114 for a stranger [H8801]   H7321 shall smart [H8735]   H7451   H8130 for it : and he that hateth [H8802]   H8628 suretiship [H8802]   H982 is sure [H8802]  .

¹⁶ H2580 A gracious H802 woman H8551 retaineth [H8799]   H3519 honour H6184 : and strong H8551 men retain [H8799]   H6239 riches.

¹⁷ H2617 The merciful H376 man H1580 doeth good [H8802]   H5315 to his own soul H394 : but he that is cruel H5916 troubleth [H8802]   H7607 his own flesh.

¹⁸ H7563 The wicked H6213 worketh [H8802]   H8267 a deceitful H6468 work H2232 : but to him that soweth [H8802]   H6666 righteousness H571 shall be a sure H7938 reward.

¹⁹ H6666 As righteousness H2416 tendeth to life H7291 : so he that pursueth [H8764]   H7451 evil H4194 pursueth it to his own death.

²⁰ H6141 They that are of a froward H3820 heart H8441 are abomination H3068 to the LORD H8549 : but such as are upright H1870 in their way H7522 are his delight.

²¹ H3027 Though hand H3027 join in hand H7451 , the wicked H5352 shall not be unpunished [H8735]   H2233 : but the seed H6662 of the righteous H4422 shall be delivered [H8738]  .

²² H5141 As a jewel H2091 of gold H2386 in a swine's H639 snout H3303 , so is a fair H802 woman H5493 which is without [H8802]   H2940 discretion.

²³ H8378 The desire H6662 of the righteous H2896 is only good H8615 : but the expectation H7563 of the wicked H5678 is wrath.

²⁴ H3426 There is H6340 that scattereth [H8764]   H3254 , and yet increaseth [H8737]   H2820 ; and there is that withholdeth [H8802]   H3476 more than is meet H4270 , but it tendeth to poverty.

²⁵ H1293 The liberal H5315 soul H1878 shall be made fat [H8792]   H7301 : and he that watereth [H8688]   H3384 shall be watered [H8686]   also himself.

²⁶ H4513 He that withholdeth [H8802]   H1250 corn H3816 , the people H5344 shall curse [H8799]   H1293 him: but blessing H7218 shall be upon the head H7666 of him that selleth [H8688]   it .

²⁷ H7836 He that diligently seeketh [H8802]   H2896 good H1245 procureth [H8762]   H7522 favour H1875 : but he that seeketh [H8802]   H7451 mischief H935 , it shall come [H8799]   unto him.

²⁸ H982 He that trusteth [H8802]   H6239 in his riches H5307 shall fall [H8799]   H6662 : but the righteous H6524 shall flourish [H8799]   H5929 as a branch.

²⁹ H5916 He that troubleth [H8802]   H1004 his own house H5157 shall inherit [H8799]   H7307 the wind H191 : and the fool H5650 shall be servant H2450 to the wise H3820 of heart.

³⁰ H6529 The fruit H6662 of the righteous H6086 is a tree H2416 of life H3947 ; and he that winneth [H8802]   H5315 souls H2450 is wise.

³¹ H6662 Behold, the righteous H7999 shall be recompensed [H8792]   H776 in the earth H7563 : much more the wicked H2398 and the sinner [H8802]  .
