Proverbs 11:2-11

²When pride cometh, then cometh shame; but with the lowly is wisdom.

³The integrity of the upright guideth them; but the crookedness of the unfaithful destroyeth them.

⁴Wealth profiteth not in the day of wrath; but righteousness delivereth from death.

⁵The righteousness of the perfect maketh plain his way; but the wicked falleth by his own wickedness.

⁶The righteousness of the upright delivereth them; but the treacherous are taken in their own craving.

⁷When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish; and the hope of evil men perisheth.

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

⁹With his mouth a hypocrite destroyeth his neighbour; but through knowledge are the righteous delivered.

¹⁰When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth; and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.

¹¹By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted; but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
