Proverbs 11 — ENGLXXUP
11
False balances are an abomination before the Lord:
2
Wherever pride enters, there will be also disgrace:
3
When a just man dies he leaves regret:
5
Righteousness traces out blameless paths:
6
The righteousness of upright men delivers them:
7
At the death of a just man his hope does not perish:
8
A righteous man escapes from a snare,
9
In the mouth of ungodly men is a snare to citizens:
10
In the prosperity of righteous men a city prospers:
11
But by the mouths of ungodly men it is overthrown.
12
A man void of understanding sneers at his fellow citizens:
13
A double-tongued man discloses the secret counsels of an assembly:
14
They that have no guidance fall like leaves:
15
A bad man does harm wherever he meets a just man:
16
A gracious wife brings glory to her husband:
17
A merciful man does good to his own soul:
18
An ungodly man performs unrighteous works:
19
A righteous son is born for life:
20
Perverse ways are an abomination to the Lord:
21
He that unjustly strikes hands shall not be unpunished:
22
As an ornament in a swine’s snout,
23
All the desire of the righteous is good:
24
There are some who scatter their own, and make it more:
25
Every sincere soul is blessed:
26
May he that hoards corn leave it to the nation:
27
He that devises good counsels seeks good favor:
28
He that trusts in wealth shall fall;
29
He that deals not graciously with his own house shall inherit the wind;
30
Out of the fruit of righteousness grows a tree of life;
31
If the righteous scarcely be saved,
