Proverbs20:23

Verſ. 23. Divers weights are an abomination] In righting and revenging themſelves men are apt to weigh things in an uneven ballance, to bee overpartial in their own cauſe, and to judge that an hainous offence in another, that is ſcarce blame-worthy in themſelves. It is beſt therefore to lay down all injuries at Gods feet, who will bee ſure to give a juſt recompence to every tranſgreſſion, Heb. 2.2. and will elſe turn his wrath from our enemies to us, for our diverſe weights and falſe ballances. See the Note on verſe 10. of this Chapter.
