The Book of Proverbs 11

11 Scales of deceit are an abomination to Yahweh

but a whole stone is his delight.

2 When presumptuousness comes, then disgrace comes,

but with modest ones is wisdom.

3 The integrity of the upright ones will guide them,

but the crookedness of the treacherous ones will destroy them.

4 Wealth will not profit in the day of rage,

but righteousness will deliver from death.

5 The righteousness of a blameless one will make his way straight,

but by his wickedness, a wicked one will fall.

6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them,

but by the desire of treacherous ones they will be captured.

7 At the death of a wicked man expectation will perish,

and the hope of strength perishes.

8 A righteous one is drawn away from distress,

and a wicked one enters instead of him.

9 With a mouth a godless one destroys his neighbor,

but with knowledge, the righteous will be delivered.

10 In the good of the righteous a city exults;

and when the wicked perish, a shout of joy.

11 With the blessing of the upright a city is raised up,

but with the mouth of the wicked it is torn down.

12 One despising his neighbor is lacking of heart,

but a man of understandings will keep quiet.

13 One going about with gossip uncovers a secret,

but one faithful of spirit covers a matter.

14 When there are no directions a people falls,

but salvation is in an abundance of counsel.

15 One will be harmed with harm if he pledges for a stranger,

but one hating hand clasps is secure.

16 A woman of grace will grasp honor,

but the ruthless will grasp riches.

17 A man of covenant faithfulness completes his soul,

but a cruel one troubles his flesh.

18 A wicked one makes a wage of falsehood,

but one sowing righteousness, a wage of truth.

19 Veritable righteousness is to life,

but one who pursues evil is to his death.

20 An abomination to Yahweh is the crooked of heart,

but his delight is the blameless of way.

21 Hand to hand, a wicked one will not remain blameless,

but the seed of the righteous will safely escape.

22 A ring of gold in the nose of a pig

is a beautiful woman turning away from discretion.

23 The desire of the righteous is only good;

the expectation of the wicked is rage.

24 There is a scatterer yet being added to more,

and one withholding more than what is right,

yet to poverty.

25 A life of blessing will be fattened,

and the one who drenches, he also will be drenched.

26 One withholding grain, people will curse him,

but a blessing is for the head of the seller.

27 One diligently seeking good seeks favor,

but one searching for evil, it will come to him.

28 One trusting in his riches, he himself will fall,

but like a leaf, the righteous will sprout.

29 One troubling his house will inherit wind,

and a fool will be a slave to the wise of heart.

30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,

and one taking souls is wise.

31 Behold, a righteous one in the land will be repaid,

how much more a wicked one and a sinner!
