Proverbs 11:3-31 - ESV - The integrity of the upright guides them, but t...

3 ¹The integrity of the upright guides them, ²but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.

4 ³Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, ⁴but righteousness delivers from death.

5 The righteousness of the blameless ⁵keeps his way straight, but the wicked falls by his own wickedness.

6 ⁶The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the treacherous ⁷are taken captive by their lust.

7 When the wicked dies, his ⁸hope will perish, and ⁹the expectation of wealth^a perishes too.

8 ¹⁰The righteous is delivered from trouble, and the wicked walks into it instead.

9 With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor, but by knowledge the righteous are delivered.

10 ¹¹When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices, and when the wicked perish there are shouts of gladness.

11 By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but ¹²by the mouth of the wicked ¹³it is overthrown.

12 Whoever ¹⁴belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent.

13 Whoever ¹⁵goes about slandering reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.

14 Where there is ¹⁶no guidance, a people falls, ¹⁷but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

15 ¹⁸Whoever puts up security for a stranger will surely suffer harm, but he who hates striking hands in pledge is secure.

16 ¹⁹A gracious woman gets honor, and ²⁰violent men get riches.

17 ²¹A man who is kind benefits himself, but a cruel man hurts himself.

18 The wicked earns deceptive wages, but one who ²²sows righteousness gets a sure reward.

19 Whoever is steadfast in righteousness ²³will live, but ²⁴he who pursues evil will die.

20 Those of ²⁵crooked heart are ²⁶an abomination to the LORD, but those of ²⁷blameless ways are ²⁸his delight.

21 ²⁹Be assured, ³⁰an evil person will not go unpunished, but ³¹the offspring of the righteous will be delivered.

22 Like ³²a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.

23 The desire of the righteous ends only in good; ³³the expectation of the wicked in wrath.

24 ³⁴One gives ³⁵freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.

25 ³⁶Whoever brings blessing ³⁷will be enriched, and ³⁸one who waters will himself be watered.

26 ³⁹The people curse him who holds back grain, but ⁴⁰a blessing is on the head of him who ⁴¹sells it.

27 Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor,^b but evil comes to ⁴²him who searches for it.

28 Whoever ⁴³trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will ⁴⁴flourish like a green leaf.

29 Whoever ⁴⁵troubles his own household will ⁴⁶inherit the wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.

30 The fruit of the righteous is ⁴⁷a tree of life, and whoever ⁴⁸captures souls is wise.

31 If ⁴⁹the righteous is repaid on earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!
