Proverbs

²When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom. ³The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them. ⁴Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. ⁵The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness. ⁶The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but they that deal treacherously shall be taken in their own mischief. ⁷When a wicked man dieth his expectation shall perish: and the hope of iniquity perisheth. ⁸The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
