Proverbs 24:23-34
23These alsoH1571 aresayingsof the wiseH2450.
To have respect of persons in judgmentH4941 is not goodH2896.24He that saith unto the wickedH7563, Thou art righteousH6662,PeoplesH5971 shall curse him, nations shall abhor him;25But to them that rebukeH3198him shall be delight,And a goodH2896 blessingH1293 shall comeH935 upon them.26He kisseth the lipsH8193Who giveth a rightH5228 answer.27PrepareH3559 thy workH4399 without,And make it ready for thee in the fieldH7704;And afterwards buildH1129 thy houseH1004.28BeH1961 not a witnessH5707 against thy neighborH7453 without causeH2600;And deceive not with thy lipsH8193.29SayH559 not, I will do soH3651 to him as he hath done to me;I will render to the manH376 according to his workH6467.30I went by the fieldH7704 of the sluggardH6102,And by the vineyardH3754 of the manH376 void of understanding;31And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns,The faceH6440 thereof was coveredH3680 with nettlesH2738,And the stoneH68 wallH1444 thereof was brokenH2040 downH2040.32Then I beheld, and consideredH7200 well;I sawH7200, and receivedH3947 instruction:33Yeta littleH4592 sleepH8142, a littleH4592 slumberH8572,A littleH4592 foldingH2264 of the handsH3027 to sleepH8142;34So shall thy povertyH7389 comeH935 as a robber,And thy want as an armed manH376.
