# Proverbs 11 (New King James Version)
|
|
The Folly of Wickedness
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 11
|
|
###### 1 Dishonest scales _are_ an abomination to the Lord,
|
|
But a just weight _is_ His delight.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 When pride comes, then comes shame;
|
|
But with the humble _is_ wisdom.
|
|
|
|
###### 3 The integrity of the upright will guide them,
|
|
But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Riches do not profit in the day of wrath,
|
|
But righteousness delivers from death.
|
|
|
|
###### 5 The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way aright,
|
|
But the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,
|
|
But the unfaithful will be caught by _their_ lust.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 When a wicked man dies, _his_ expectation will perish,
|
|
And the hope of the unjust perishes.
|
|
|
|
###### 8 The righteous is delivered from trouble,
|
|
And it comes to the wicked instead.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 The hypocrite with _his_ mouth destroys his neighbor,
|
|
But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices;
|
|
And when the wicked perish, _there is_ jubilation.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted,
|
|
But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 He who is devoid of wisdom despises his neighbor,
|
|
But a man of understanding holds his peace.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 A talebearer reveals secrets,
|
|
But he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter.
|
|
|
|
###### 14 Where _there is_ no counsel, the people fall;
|
|
But in the multitude of counselors _there is_ safety.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 He who is surety for a stranger will suffer,
|
|
But one who hates being surety is secure.
|
|
|
|
###### 16 A gracious woman retains honor,
|
|
But ruthless _men_ retain riches.
|
|
|
|
###### 17 The merciful man does good for his own soul,
|
|
But _he who is_ cruel troubles his own flesh.
|
|
|
|
###### 18 The wicked _man_ does deceptive work,
|
|
But he who sows righteousness _will have_ a sure reward.
|
|
|
|
###### 19 As righteousness _leads_ to life,
|
|
So he who pursues evil _pursues it_ to his own death.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 Those who are of a perverse heart _are_ an abomination to the Lord,
|
|
But _the_ blameless in their ways _are_ His delight.
|
|
|
|
###### 21 _Though they join_ forces, the wicked will not go unpunished;
|
|
But the posterity of the righteous will be delivered.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 _As_ a ring of gold in a swine's snout,
|
|
_So is_ a lovely woman who lacks discretion.
|
|
|
|
###### 23 The desire of the righteous _is_ only good,
|
|
_But_ the expectation of the wicked _is_ wrath.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 There is _one_ who scatters, yet increases more;
|
|
And there is _one_ who withholds more than is right,
|
|
But it _leads_ to poverty.
|
|
|
|
###### 25 The generous soul will be made rich,
|
|
And he who waters will also be watered himself.
|
|
|
|
###### 26 The people will curse him who withholds grain,
|
|
But blessing _will be_ on the head of him who sells _it._
|
|
|
|
###### 27 He who earnestly seeks good finds favor,
|
|
But trouble will come to him who seeks _evil._
|
|
|
|
###### 28 He who trusts in his riches will fall,
|
|
But the righteous will flourish like foliage.
|
|
|
|
###### 29 He who troubles his own house will inherit the wind,
|
|
And the fool _will be_ servant to the wise of heart.
|
|
|
|
###### 30 The fruit of the righteous _is a_ tree of life,
|
|
And he who wins souls _is_ wise.
|
|
|
|
###### 31 If the righteous will be recompensed on the earth,
|
|
How much more the ungodly and the sinner.
