Proverbs 11
1 Scales of deceit [are] [the] abomination of Yahweh and a weight perfect [is] pleasure his.
A false balance [is] abomination to the LORD: but a just weight [is] his delight.
2 It comes pride and it came shame and [is] with modest [people] wisdom.
[When] pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly [is] wisdom.

Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
5 [the] righteousness of A blameless [person] it makes straight way his and by wickedness his he falls a wicked [person].
The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 [the] righteousness of Upright [people] it delivers them and by [the] craving of treacherous [people] they are caught.
The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in [their own] naughtiness.

When a wicked man dieth, [his] expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust [men] perisheth.
8 A righteous [person] from distress [is] delivered and he came a wicked [person] in place his.
The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
9 By [the] mouth a godless [person] he ruins neighbor his and by knowledge righteous [people] they are delivered.
An hypocrite with [his] mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
10 In [the] prosperity of righteous [people] it rejoices a town and when perish wicked [people] a shout of joy.
When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked perish, [there is] shouting.
11 By [the] blessing of upright [people] it is exalted a town and by [the] mouth of wicked [people] it is torn down.
By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 [one who] despises Neighbor his [is] lacking of heart and a person of understanding he keeps quiet.
He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.
13 [one who] goes about A slanderer [is] revealing a secret and a [person] faithful of spirit [is] concealing a matter.
A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

Where no counsel [is], the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors [there is] safety.
15 Harm he is harmed for he stood surety for a stranger and [one who] hates those striking hands [is] secure.
He that is surety for a stranger shall smart [for it: ] and he that hateth suretiship is sure.
16 A woman of grace she lays hold of honor and ruthless [people] they take hold of wealth.
A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong [men] retain riches.
17 [is] dealing bountifully with Self his a person of loyalty and [is] troubling body his a cruel [person].
The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but [he that is] cruel troubleth his own flesh.
18 A wicked [person] [is] making wage[s] of falsehood and [one who] sows righteousness wage[s] of truth.
The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness [shall be] a sure reward.
19 True righteousness [is] to life and [one who] pursues evil [is] to own death his.
As righteousness [tendeth] to life: so he that pursueth evil [pursueth it] to his own death.
20 [are] [the] abomination of Yahweh perverse [people] of heart and [are] pleasure his [people] blameless of way.
They that are of a froward heart [are] abomination to the LORD: but [such as are] upright in [their] way [are] his delight.
21 Hand to hand not he will go unpunished an evil [person] and [the] offspring of righteous [people] he will be delivered.
[Though] hand [join] in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
22 A ring of gold in [the] nose of a pig a woman beautiful and [who] turns aside from discernment.
[As] a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, [so is] a fair woman which is without discretion.
23 [the] desire of Righteous [people] only [is] good [the] hope of wicked [people] [is] fury.
The desire of the righteous [is] only good: [but] the expectation of the wicked [is] wrath.
24 There [is one who] scatters and [who is] increased still and [one who] withholds from uprightness only to poverty.
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and [there is] that withholdeth more than is meet, but [it tendeth] to poverty.
25 A person of blessing he will be made fat and [one who] gives water also he he will be given water.
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
26 [one who] withholds Grain they curse him a people and a blessing [belongs] to [the] head of [one who] sells grain.
He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing [shall be] upon the head of him that selleth [it].
27 [one who] seeks diligently Good he seeks favor and [one who] seeks carefully evil it will come to him.
He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
28 [one who] trusts In wealth his he he will fall and like leaf righteous [people] they will bud.
He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
29 [one who] troubles Household his he will inherit wind and [will be] a servant a fool of [the] wise of heart.
He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool [shall be] servant to the wise of heart.
30 [the] fruit of [the] righteous [is] a tree of Life and [one who] takes people [is] wise.
The fruit of the righteous [is] a tree of life; and he that winneth souls [is] wise.
31 There! a righteous [person] on the earth he is rewarded indeed? for a wicked [person] and a sinner.
Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
