✨ Proverbs 11 draws a sharp line between the way of righteousness and the way of wickedness. It reminds us that wealth, power, and deceit cannot stand in the day of judgment, but righteousness delivers from death. Integrity, humility, mercy, and generosity bring life—not only to the one who walks in them, but also to entire communities.

Notice how the chapter emphasizes that the blessing of the upright can exalt a city, while the words of the wicked can tear it down (v. 11). Righteousness is not just personal; it is communal. When the righteous flourish, the people rejoice; when the wicked perish, the whole land breathes a sigh of relief (v. 10).

The chapter ends with a sobering truth: “Behold, the righteous shall be repaid in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!” (v. 31). God is not mocked. Every seed we sow brings a harvest—whether for good or for evil. The righteous bear fruit like a tree of life, and the wise win souls (v. 30).

Let this proverb call us higher: to live with integrity, to sow generously, to walk humbly with God, and to be wise enough to bring others into His life-giving kingdom.

📖 Scripture Text and Lyrics (WEB):

Proverbs 11 (Song Lyrics – Word for Word)

A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh,
But accurate weights are His delight.

When pride comes, then comes shame,
But with humility comes wisdom.

The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
But the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.

Riches don’t profit in the day of wrath,
But righteousness delivers from death.

The righteousness of the blameless shall direct his way,
But the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them,
But the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.

When a wicked man dies, hope perishes,
And expectation of power comes to nothing.

A righteous person is delivered out of trouble,
And the wicked takes his place.

With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor,
But the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.

When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices.
When the wicked perish, there is shouting.

By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted,
But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

One who despises his neighbor is void of wisdom,
But a man of understanding holds his peace.

One who brings gossip betrays a confidence,
But one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.

Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls,
But in the multitude of counselors there is victory.

He who is collateral for a stranger will suffer for it,
But he who refuses pledges of collateral is secure.

A gracious woman obtains honor,
But violent men obtain riches.

The merciful man does good to his own soul,
But he who is cruel troubles his own flesh.

Wicked people earn deceitful wages,
But one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.

He who is truly righteous gets life.
He who pursues evil gets death.

Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to Yahweh,
But those whose ways are blameless are His delight.

Most certainly, the evil man will not be unpunished,
But the offspring of the righteous will be delivered.

Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout,
Is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.

The desire of the righteous is only good.
The expectation of the wicked is wrath.

There is one who scatters, and increases yet more.
There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.

The liberal soul shall be made fat.
He who waters shall be watered also himself.

People curse someone who withholds grain,
But blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.

He who diligently seeks good seeks favor,
But he who searches after evil, it shall come to him.

He who trusts in his riches will fall,
But the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.

He who troubles his own house shall inherit the wind.
The foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life.
He who is wise wins souls.

Behold, the righteous shall be repaid in the earth,
How much more the wicked and the sinner!
