Contrast the Upright and the Wicked

11A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, But a just weight is His delight.H4820H3976H8441H3068H8003H68H7522 2When pride comes, then comes dishonor, But with the humble is wisdom.H2087H935H935H7036H6800H2451 3The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the falseness of the treacherous will destroy them.H8538H3477H5148H5558H898H7703H7703 4Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, But righteousness delivers from death.H1952H3276H3117H5678H6666H5337H4194 5The righteousness of the blameless will smooth his way, But the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.H6666H8549H3474H1870H7563H5307H7564 6The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, But the treacherous will be caught by [their own] greed.H6666H3477H5337H898H3920H1942 7When a wicked man dies, [his] expectation will perish, And the hope of strong men perishes.H7563H120H4194H8615H6H8431H205H6 8The righteous is delivered from trouble, But the wicked takes his place.H6662H2502H6869H7563H935 9With [his] mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor, But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.H2611H6310H7843H7453H1847H6662H2502 10When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices, And when the wicked perish, there is glad shouting.H2898H6662H7151H5970H7563H6H7440 11By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, But by the mouth of the wicked it is torn down.H1293H3477H7176H7311H2040H6310H7563 12He who despises his neighbor lacks sense, But a man of understanding keeps silent.H2638H3820H936H7453H376H8394H2790 13He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, But he who is trustworthy conceals a matter.H1980H7400H1540H5475H539H7307H3680H1697 14Where there is no guidance, the people fall, But in abundance of counselors there is victory.H8458H5971H5307H7230H3289H8668 15He who is surety for a stranger will surely suffer for it, But he who hates going surety is safe.H6148H2114H7321H7451H8130H8628H982 16A gracious woman attains honor, And violent men attain riches.H2580H802H8551H3519H6184H8551H6239 17The merciful man does himself good, But the cruel man does himself harm.H2617H376H1580H5315H394H5916H7607 18The wicked earns deceptive wages, But he who sows righteousness [gets] a true reward.H7563H6213H8267H6468H2232H6666H571H7938 19He who is steadfast in righteousness [will attain] to life, And he who pursues evil [will bring about] his own death.H6666H2416H7291H7451H4194 20The perverse in heart are an abomination to the LORD, But the blameless in [their] walk are His delight.H6141H3820H8441H3068H8549H1870H7522 21Assuredly, the evil man will not go unpunished, But the descendants of the righteous will be delivered.H3027H3027H7451H5352H2233H6662H4422 22[As] a ring of gold in a swine's snout, [So is] a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.H5141H2091H2386H639H3303H802H5493H2940 23The desire of the righteous is only good, [But] the expectation of the wicked is wrath.H8378H6662H2896H8615H7563H5678 24There is one who scatters, yet increases all the more, And there is one who withholds what is justly due, but [it results] only in want.H3426H6340H3254H2820H3476H4270 25The generous man will be prosperous, And he who waters will himself be watered.H1293H5315H1878H7301H3384 26He who withholds grain, the people will curse him, But blessing will be on the head of him who sells [it.]H4513H1250H3816H5344H1293H7218H7666 27He who diligently seeks good seeks favor, But he who searches after evil, it will come to him.H7836H2896H1245H7522H1875H7451H935 28He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like the [green] leaf.H982H6239H5307H6662H6524H5929 29He who troubles his own house will inherit wind, And the foolish will be servant to the wisehearted.H5916H1004H5157H7307H191H5650H2450H3820 30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who is wise wins souls.H6529H6662H6086H2416H3947H5315H2450 31If the righteous will be rewarded in the earth, How much more the wicked and the sinner!H6662H7999H776H7563H2398
