Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good.

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

VERSE (23) - :10 Eze 45:10

SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:23

¶ Abominación son al SEÑOR las pesas dobles; y el peso falso no es bueno.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 23. Divers weights [are] an abomination unto the Lord , etc.] (See Gill on “ Proverbs 20:10”); 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.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 23 - A bargain made by fraud will prove a losing bargain in the end.
