To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
-
He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
-
Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.
-
The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.
-
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
-
For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
-
For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:
-
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
-
By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
-
I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
-
Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
-
Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
-
The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.
-
The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
-
The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out.
-
A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
-
An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
-
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
-
As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
-
The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
-
Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
-
There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
-
A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.
-
Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.
-
The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.
