Proverbs 11:1 - 8


1 A false balance is abomination to the Lord:
but a just weight is his delight.
2 When pride cometh,
then cometh shame:
but with the lowly is wisdom.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them:
but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath:
but righteousness delivereth from death.
5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way:
but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them:
but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
7 When a wicked man dieth,
his expectation shall perish:
and the hope of unjust men perisheth.
8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble,
and the wicked cometh in his stead.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

Light of the world and light of our human life,
we thank you for sending your Word into our hearts.
Your Word works within us and allows us to rejoice.
Even if we often experience hard and bitter times here on earth,
we can rejoice already,
as the world shall rejoice when your will and your Word are fulfilled.
Protect us,
and keep us pure and free in spirit,
that we may be your servants,
that we may sometimes be allowed to say a little word in harmony with the great,
powerful Word which you have sent into the world.



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
