Proverbs about Integrity

Today we will be studying proverbs about integrity. Integrity is defined as "adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty."

Those who do what is right are guided by their honest lives. But those who aren't faithful are destroyed by their trickery.

Proverbs 11:3 (NIrV)

  • Based on this verse, what is integrity? doing what is right, living an honest life

Better a poor man whose walk is blameless than a fool whose lips are perverse.

Proverbs 19:1 (NIV)

  • Based on this verse, what is integrity? being blameless

Anyone who does what is right lives without blame. Blessed are his children after him.

Proverbs 20:7 (NIrV)

  • A person of integrity does right and lives a blameless life. Who else is blessed by a man of integrity?
  • Do you want me to live a life of integrity?

Even a child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right.

Proverbs 20:11 (NIV)

  • Who does this verse say is judged by their integrity?
  • Do you think you should live a pure and right life?
