Proverbs 11 21st Century King James 11 A false balance is an 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 the transgressors shall be taken in their own wickedness. 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 A hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbor, 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 neighbor, but a man of understanding holdeth his peace. ............note Holding you peace, comfort is embrace.
