Proverbs 11

1 From this chapter to the five and twentieth are sundry observations of moral virtues, and their contrary vices.

 11:1 ¶ A false 4820 balance 3976 [is] abomination 8441 to the LORD: 3068 but a just 8003 weight 68 [is] his delight. 7522

 11:2 [When] pride 2087 cometh, 935 z8804 then cometh 935 z8799 shame: 7036 but with x854 the lowly 6800 z8803 [is] wisdom. 2451

 11:3 The integrity 8538 of the upright 3477 shall guide 5148 z8686 them: but the perverseness 5558 of transgressors 898 z8802 shall destroy 7703 z8799 z8675 z8804 them.

 11:4 Riches 1952 profit 3276 z8686 not x3808 in the day 3117 of wrath: 5678 but righteousness 6666 delivereth 5337 z8686 from death. 4194 x4480

 11:5 The righteousness 6666 of the perfect 8549 shall direct 3474 z8762 his way: 1870 but the wicked 7563 shall fall 5307 z8799 by his own wickedness. 7564

 11:6 The righteousness 6666 of the upright 3477 shall deliver 5337 z8686 them: but transgressors 898 z8802 shall be taken 3920 z8735 in [their own] naughtiness. 1942

 11:7 When a wicked 7563 man 120 dieth, 4194 [his] expectation 8615 shall perish: 6 z8799 and the hope 8431 of unjust 205 [men] perisheth. 6 z8804

 11:8 The righteous 6662 is delivered x2502 out y2502 z8738 of trouble, 6869 x4480 and the wicked 7563 cometh 935 z8799 in his stead. x8478

 11:9 A hypocrite 2611 with [his] mouth 6310 destroyeth 7843 z8686 his neighbor: 7453 but through knowledge 1847 shall the just 6662 be delivered. 2502 z8735

 11:10 When it goeth well 2898 with the righteous, 6662 the city 7151 rejoiceth: 5970 z8799 and when the wicked 7563 perish, 6 z8800 [there is] shouting. 7440

 11:11 By the blessing 1293 of the upright 3477 the city 7176 is exalted: 7311 z8799 but it is overthrown 2040 z8735 by the mouth 6310 of the wicked. 7563

 11:12 He that is void 2638 of wisdom 3820 despiseth 936 z8802 his neighbor: 7453 but a man 376 of understanding 8394 holdeth his peace. 2790 z8686

 11:13 A talebearer 1980 7400 z8802 revealeth 1540 z8764 secrets: 5475 but he that is of a faithful 539 z8738 spirit 7307 concealeth 3680 z8764 the matter. 1697

 11:14 Where no x369 counsel 8458 [is], the people 5971 fall: 5307 z8799 but in the multitude 7230 of counselors 3289 z8802 [there is] safety. 8668

 11:15 He that is surety 6148 z8804 for a stranger 2114 z8801 shall smart 7451 y7321 z8735 x7489 [for it]: and he that hateth 8130 z8802 suretiship 8628 z8802 is sure. 982 z8802

 11:16 A gracious 2580 woman 802 retaineth 8551 z8799 honor: 3519 and strong 6184 [men] retain 8551 z8799 riches. 6239

 11:17 The merciful 2617 man 376 doeth good 1580 z8802 to his own soul: 5315 but [he that is] cruel 394 troubleth 5916 z8802 his own flesh. 7607

 11:18 The wicked 7563 worketh 6213 z8802 a deceitful 8267 work: 6468 but to him that soweth 2232 z8802 righteousness 6666 [shall be] a sure 571 reward. 7938

 11:19 As x3651 righteousness 6666 [tendeth] to life: 2416 so he that pursueth 7291 z8764 evil 7451 [pursueth it] to his own death. 4194

 11:20 They that are of a froward 6141 heart 3820 [are] abomination 8441 to the LORD: 3068 but [such as are] upright 8549 in [their] way 1870 [are] his delight. 7522

 11:21 [Though] hand 3027 [join] in hand, 3027 the wicked 7451 shall not x3808 be unpunished: 5352 z8735 but the seed 2233 of the righteous 6662 shall be delivered. 4422 z8738

 11:22 [As] a jewel 5141 of gold 2091 in a swine's 2386 snout, 639 [so is] a fair 3303 woman 802 which is without 5493 z8802 discretion. 2940

 11:23 The desire 8378 of the righteous 6662 [is] only x389 good: 2896 [but] the expectation 8615 of the wicked 7563 [is] wrath. 5678

 11:24 There is 3426 that scattereth, 6340 z8764 and yet x5750 increaseth; 3254 z8737 and [there is] that withholdeth 2820 z8802 more than is meet, 3476 x4480 but [it tendeth] to poverty. 4270

 11:25 The liberal 1293 soul 5315 shall be made fat: 1878 z8792 and he that watereth 7301 z8688 shall be watered 3384 z8686 also x1571 himself. x1931

 11:26 He that withholdeth 4513 z8802 corn, 1250 the people 3816 shall curse y5344 z8799 x6895 him: but blessing 1293 [shall be] upon the head 7218 of him that selleth 7666 z8688 [it].

 11:27 He that diligently seeketh 7836 z8802 good 2896 procureth 1245 z8762 favor: 7522 but he that seeketh 1875 z8802 mischief, 7451 it shall come 935 z8799 unto him.

 11:28 He x1931 that trusteth 982 z8802 in his riches 6239 shall fall: 5307 z8799 but the righteous 6662 shall flourish 6524 z8799 as a branch. 5929

 11:29 He that troubleth 5916 z8802 his own house 1004 shall inherit 5157 z8799 the wind: 7307 and the fool 191 [shall be] servant 5650 to the wise 2450 of heart. 3820

 11:30 The fruit 6529 of the righteous 6662 [is] a tree 6086 of life; 2416 and he that winneth 3947 z8802 souls 5315 [is] wise. 2450

 11:31 Behold, x2005 the righteous 6662 shall be recompensed 7999 z8792 in the earth: 776 much more x637 x3588 the wicked 7563 and the sinner. 2398 z8802
