7A just man that walketh in his integrity, blessed are his children after him.
8A king that sitteth on the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
9Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
10Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.
11Even a child maketh himself known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
12The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
13Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
14It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
15There is gold, and abundance of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; and hold him in pledge that is surety for strangers.
17Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
18Every purpose is established by counsel: and by wise guidance make thou war,
19He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that openeth wide his lips.
20Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in the blackest darkness.
21An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
22Say not thou, I will recompense evil: wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
23Divers weights are an abomination to the LORD; and a false balance is not good.
