Sundry observations of moral virtues, and their contrary vices (10-24).1 ¶ A falseº balanceº [is] abominationº to the LORD:º but a justº weightº [is] his delight.º 2 [When] prideº cometh,ºª then comethºª shame:º but with² the lowlyºª [is] wisdom.º 3 The integrityº of the uprightº shall guideºª them: but the perversenessº of transgressorsºª shall destroyºªªª them. 4 Richesº profitºª not² in the dayº of wrath:º but righteousnessº deliverethºª from death.º² 5 The righteousnessº of the perfectº shall directºª his way:º but the wickedº shall fallºª by his own wickedness.º 6 The righteousnessº of the uprightº shall deliverºª them: but transgressorsºª shall be takenºª in [their own] naughtiness.º 7 When a wickedº manº dieth,º [his] expectationº shall perish:ºª and the hopeº of unjustº [men] perisheth.ºª 8 The righteousº is delivered² out¹ª of trouble,º² and the wickedº comethºª in his stead.² 9 An hypocriteº with [his] mouthº destroyethºª his neighbour:º but through knowledgeº shall the justº be delivered.ºª 10 When it goeth wellº with the righteous,º the cityº rejoiceth:ºª and when the wickedº perish,ºª [there is] shouting.º 11 By the blessingº of the uprightº the cityº is exalted:ºª but it is overthrownºª by the mouthº of the wicked.º 12 He that is voidº of wisdomº despisethºª his neighbour:º but a manº of understandingº holdeth his peace.ºª 13 A talebearerººª revealethºª secrets:º but he that is of a faithfulºª spiritº concealethºª the matter.º 14 Where no² counselº [is], the peopleº fall:ºª but in the multitudeº of counsellorsºª [there is] safety.º 15 He that is suretyºª for a strangerºª shall smartº¹ª² [for it]: and he that hatethºª suretishipºª is sure.ºª 16 A graciousº womanº retainethºª honour:º and strongº [men] retainºª riches.º 17 The mercifulº manº doeth goodºª to his own soul:º but [he that is] cruelº troublethºª his own flesh.º 18 The wickedº workethºª a deceitfulº work:º but to him that sowethºª righteousnessº [shall be] a sureº reward.º 19 As² righteousnessº [tendeth] to life:º so he that pursuethºª evilº [pursueth it] to his own death.º 20 They that are of a frowardº heartº [are] abominationº to the LORD:º but [such as are] uprightº in [their] wayº [are] his delight.º 21 [Though] handº [join] in hand,º the wickedº shall not² be unpunished:ºª but the seedº of the righteousº shall be delivered.ºª 22 [As] a jewelº of goldº in a swine'sº snout,º [so is] a fairº womanº which is withoutºª discretion.º 23 The desireº of the righteousº [is] only² good:º [but] the expectationº of the wickedº [is] wrath.º 24 There isº that scattereth,ºª and yet² increaseth;ºª and [there is] that withholdethºª more than is meet,º² but [it tendeth] to poverty.º 25 The liberalº soulº shall be made fat:ºª and he that waterethºª shall be wateredºª also² himself.² 26 He that withholdethºª corn,º the peopleº shall curse¹ª² him: but blessingº [shall be] upon the headº of him that sellethºª [it]. 27 He that diligently seekethºª goodº procurethºª favour:º but he that seekethºª mischief,º it shall comeºª unto him. 28 He² that trustethºª in his richesº shall fall:ºª but the righteousº shall flourishºª as a branch.º 29 He that troublethºª his own houseº shall inheritºª the wind:º and the foolº [shall be] servantº to the wiseº of heart.º 30 The fruitº of the righteousº [is] a treeº of life;º and he that winnethºª soulsº [is] wise.º 31 Behold,² the righteousº shall be recompensedºª in the earth:º much more²² the wickedº and the sinner.ºª [1] Lv 19:35; Dt 25:13; Pv 16:11; 20:10, 23; Ezk 45:10; Ho 12:7; Am 8:5; Mi 6:10.
