Proverbs 11:1-6 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

1. A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.

2. When pride comes, then comes shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

3. The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

4. Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivers from death.

5. The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

6. The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own lust.
