Proverbs 11 (KJV)   A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just 
weight is his delight. {2} When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the 
lowly is wisdom. {3} The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the 
perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them. {4} Riches profit not in the 
day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. {5} The righteousness 
of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own 
wickedness. {6} The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but 
transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness. {7} When a wicked man 
dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perisheth. 
{8} The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his 
stead. {9} An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through 
knowledge shall the just be delivered. {10} When it goeth well with the 
righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, there is shouting. 
{11} By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown 
by the mouth of the wicked. {12} He that is void of wisdom despiseth his 
neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace. {13} A talebearer 
revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter. 
{14} Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors 
there is safety. {15} He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and 
he that hateth suretiship is sure. {16} A gracious woman retaineth honour: and 
strong men retain riches. {17} The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: 
but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh. {18} The wicked worketh a 
deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward. 
{19} As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to 
his own death. {20} They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the 
LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight. {21} Though hand 
join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the 
righteous shall be delivered. {22} As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so 
is a fair woman which is without discretion. {23} The desire of the righteous 
is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath. {24} There is that 
scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is 
meet, but it tendeth to poverty. {25} The liberal soul shall be made fat: and 
he that watereth shall be watered also himself. {26} He that withholdeth corn, 
the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that 
selleth it. {27} He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that 
seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him. {28} He that trusteth in his riches 
shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch. {29} He that 
troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant 
to the wise of heart. {30} The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and 
he that winneth souls is wise. {31} Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed 
in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
