Proverbs: 11:16-31
Pr:11:16: A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain
riches.
Pr:11:17: The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he
that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
Pr:11:18: The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that
soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
Pr:11:19: As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth
evil pursueth it to his own death.
Pr:11:20: They that are of a froward heart are abomination to
the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
Pr:11:21: Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished:
but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
Pr:11:22: As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair
woman which is without discretion.
Pr:11:23: The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation
of the wicked is wrath.
Pr:11:24: There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there
is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
Pr:11:25: The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth
shall be watered also himself.
Pr:11:26: He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him:
but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.
Pr:11:27: He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but
he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
Pr:11:28: He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous
shall flourish as a branch.
Pr:11:29: He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind:
and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
Pr:11:30: The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he
that winneth souls is wise.
Pr:11:31: Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth:
much more the wicked and the sinner.
