11:1 The Lord abhors 1 dishonest scales, 2
but an accurate weight 3 is his delight.
11:2 When pride 4 comes, 5 then comes disgrace, 6
but with humility 7 comes 8 wisdom.
11:3 The integrity of the upright guides them, 9
but the crookedness of the unfaithful destroys them. 10
11:4 Wealth does not profit in the day of wrath, 11
but righteousness delivers from mortal danger. 12
11:5 The righteousness of the blameless will make straight their way, 13
but the wicked person will fall by his own wickedness. 14
11:6 The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, 15
but the faithless will be captured 16 by their own desires. 17
11:7 When a wicked person dies, his expectation perishes, 18
and the hope of his strength 19 perishes. 20
