Integrity and Divine Justice
Proverbs 11:1-8
1
Balances of deceit are an abomination to Jehovah, And a perfect weight is His delight.
2
Pride hath come, and shame cometh, And with the lowly is wisdom.
3
The integrity of the upright leadeth them, And the perverseness of the treacherous destroyeth them.
4
Wealth profiteth not in a day of wrath, And righteousness delivereth from death.
5
The righteousness of the perfect maketh right his way, And by his wickedness doth the wicked fall.
6
The righteousness of the upright delivereth them, And in mischief the treacherous are captured.
7
In the death of a wicked man, hope perisheth, And the expectation of the iniquitous hath been lost.
8
The righteous from distress is drawn out, And the wicked goeth in instead of him.
