1 A false balaunce is an abhominacion vnto the LORDE, but a true weight pleaseth him.

2 Where pryde is, there is shame also and confucion: but where as is lowlynes, there is wysdome.

3 The innocent dealynge of the iust shal lede them, but the vnfaithfulnesse of the despysers shalbe their owne destruccion.

4 Riches helpe not in the daye of vengeaunce, but rightuousnesse delyuereth fro death.

5 The rightuousnes of ye innocent ordreth his waye, but the vngodly shal fall in his owne wickednesse.

6 The rightuousnesse of the iust shal delyuer them, but the despysers shalbe taken in their owne vngodlynesse.
