Integrity and Divine Justice
Proverbs 11:1-8
1
Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD, but an accurate weight is His delight.
2
When pride comes, disgrace follows, but with humility comes wisdom.
3
The integrity of the upright guides them, but the perversity of the faithless destroys them.
4
Riches are worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness brings deliverance from death.
5
The righteousness of the blameless directs their path, but the wicked fall by their own wickedness.
6
The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the faithless are trapped by their own desires.
7
When the wicked man dies, his hope perishes, and the hope of his strength vanishes.
8
The righteous man is delivered from trouble; in his place the wicked man goes in.
