Proverbs 11:1-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. False scales are an abomination to the Lord,but an honest weight, his delight.

2. When pride comes, disgrace comes;but with the humble is wisdom.

3. The honesty of the upright guides them;the faithless are ruined by their duplicity.

4. Wealth is useless on a day of wrath, but justice saves from death.

5. The justice of the honest makes their way straight,but by their wickedness the wicked fall.
