<p>

      
         1.  A False balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
      
    <br/>

      
         2.  When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
      
    <br/>

      
         3.  The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors 
        shall destroy them.
      
    <br/>

      
         4.  Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
      
    <br/>

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

      
         6.  The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken 
        in their own naughtiness.
      
    <br/>

      
         7.  When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men 
        perisheth.
      
    <br/>

      
         8.  The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.
      
    <br/>

      
         9.  An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the 
        just be delivered.
      
    <br/>

      
         10.  When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the wicked 
        perish, there is shouting.
      
    <br/>

      
         11.  By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the 
        mouth of the wicked.
      
    <br/>

      
         12.  He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding 
        holdeth his peace.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>13.  A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the 
        matter.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>14.  Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellers there is 
        safety.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         15.  He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship 
        is sure.
      
    <br/>

      
         16.  A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches.
      
    <br/>

      
         17.  The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own 
        flesh.
      
    <br/>

      
         18.  The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a 
        sure reward.
      
    <br/>

      
         19.  As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own 
        death.
      
    <br/>

      
         20.  They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the Lord: but such as are 
        upright in their way are his delight.
      
    <br/>

      
         21.  Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the 
        righteous shall be delivered.
      
    <br/>

      
         22.  As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without 
        discretion.
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 23.  The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is 
        wrath.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         24.  There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more 
        than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
      
    <br/>

      
         25.  The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also 
        himself.
      
    <br/>

      
         26.  He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the 
        head of him that selleth it.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>27.  He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it 
        shall come unto him.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         28.  He that trusteth in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall flourish as a 
        branch.
      
    <br/>

      
         29.  He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be 
        servant to the wise of heart.
      
    <br/>

      
        <b> 30.  The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         31.  Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and 
        the sinner.
