Proverbs 16:11

For all who do such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to Yahweh your God.

A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight.

He said, “Why would you want go to him today? It is not a new moon or a Sabbath.” She said, “It’s all right.”

Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”

But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.

You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, one heavy and one light.

You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.

There are six things which Yahweh hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him:

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, producing with his hands something that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

“You shall not steal.

“ ‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.

“ ‘You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity.

You shall not sacrifice to Yahweh your God an ox or a sheep in which is a defect or anything evil; for that is an abomination to Yahweh your God.

“Don’t keep talking so exceedingly proudly. Don’t let arrogance come out of your mouth, for Yahweh is a God of knowledge. By him actions are weighed.

“Oh that my anguish were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!

(let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity);

Judge me, Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity. I have trusted also in Yahweh without wavering.

Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.

Differing weights and differing measures, both of them alike are an abomination to Yahweh.

Yahweh detests differing weights, and dishonest scales are not pleasing.

To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to Yahweh than sacrifice.

A malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but he harbors evil in his heart.

For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah.”

The way of the just is uprightness. You who are upright make the path of the righteous level.

and say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says to Jerusalem: “Your origin and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite. An Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hittite.

Shall I be pure with dishonest scales, and with a bag of deceitful weights?

The godly man has perished out of the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.

Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to Yahweh of Armies; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of Yahweh of Armies.

Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.’

that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.
