Proverbs

¹The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him. ²When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. ³The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity. ⁴Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death. ⁵The righteousness of the blameless makes their paths straight, but the wicked are brought down by their own wickedness. ⁶The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the unfaithful are trapped by evil desires.
