Tweerlei gewicht is den Heer een gruwel, en ene valse weegschaal is niet goed.
Tweeerlei weegsteen is den HEERE een gruwel, en de bedriegelijke weegschaal is niet goed.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
weights: Proverbs 20:10, Ezekiel 45:10
a false balance: Heb. balances of deceit, Hosea 12:7, Amos 8:5
Reciprocal: Deuteronomy 25:16 - all that do Proverbs 6:16 - an Proverbs 11:1 - A false balance is Proverbs 16:11 - just Micah 6:10 - and 1 Thessalonians 4:6 - go
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Divers weights [are] an abomination unto the Lord,....
:-; which is here repeated for the further confirmation of it, and that it might be taken notice of and avoided; and perhaps this sin of using false weights and measures was common with the Jews;
and a false balance [is] not good; in the sight of God; but an abomination, as in Proverbs 11:1; nor is it good for men in the issue; for though they may gain by it at present, it will prove a loss to them in the end, since it will bring a curse on all they get.
