⁹ He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.

11 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.

³ The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

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

¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

¹² There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

²³ Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good.

³ A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

² For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.

¹⁹ Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

²⁰ For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

²¹ Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

²² But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

²³ Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;

²⁴ Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
