A just weight and balance are the LORD's: all the weights in the bag are his work.

He longed a longing all the day: and the just one shall give and not keep back.

All of them, shall be plain, to them who would understand, and just, to such as would gain knowledge.

In increasing the unjust, transion will increase: and the just all look upon their fall.

The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesses the habitation of the just.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more unto the perfect day.

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 covers 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 of little worth.

The mouth of the just brings forth wisdom: but the perverse tongue shall be cut out.

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

A hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall escape from trouble.

There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with trouble.

A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children: but the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

He that justifies the wicked, and he that condemns the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.

Also, to punish the just is not good, nor to flog princes for their integrity.

He that speaks first in his own cause seems just; until his neighbor comes and examines him.

The just man walks in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.

It is joy to the just to do justice: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

For a just man falls seven times, and rises up again: but the wicked shall fall by calamity.

If they say—“Come with us!
Let’s set an ambush and kill someone.
Let’s attack some innocent person just for fun!

for the Lord disciplines the one He loves,
just as a father, the son he delights in.

The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his good.

An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.

It is by me that kings reign
and rulers enact just law;

The thoughts of the righteous are just,
but guidance from the wicked leads to deceit.

Doing what is righteous and just
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
