Proverbs11:3
Verſ. 3. The integrity of the upright ſhall guide them] An elegant alluſion in the original. Their uprightneſs ſhall lead them whither they would, and ſecure them from danger: They fulfil the Royal Law, James 2.8. keep the Kings high-way, and ſo are kept ſafe, whiles thoſe that go out of Gods Precincts are out of his protection.
But the perverſneſs of tranſgreſſors] Of prevaricators, that run upon rough Precipices. Theſe are by the Prophet Amos likened to horſes running upon a rock, where firſt they break their hoofs, and then their necks, Amos 6.12.
