1A false balance is an abomination to Jehovah;
2When pride cometh, then cometh shame;
3The integrity of the upright shall guide them;
4Riches profit not in the day of wrath;
5The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way;
6The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them;
7When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish;
8The righteous is delivered out of trouble;
9With his mouth the godless man destroyeth his neighbor;
10When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth;
11By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted;
12He that despiseth his neighbor is void of wisdom;
13He that goeth about as a tale-bearer revealeth secrets;
14Where no wise guidance is, the people falleth;
15He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it;
16A gracious woman obtaineth honor;
17The merciful man doeth good to his own soul;
18The wicked earneth deceitful wages;
19He that is stedfast in righteousness shall attain unto life;
20They that are perverse in heart are an abomination to Jehovah;
21Though hand join in hand, the evil man shall not be unpunished;
22As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout,
23The desire of the righteous is only good;
24There is that scattereth, and increaseth yet more;
25The liberal soul shall be made fat;
26He that withholdeth grain, the people shall curse him;
27He that diligently seeketh good seeketh favor;
28He that trusteth in his riches shall fall;
29He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind;
30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;
31Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth;
