Proverbs 3:27-35
27Do not withhold good from the deserving1 when it is within your power to act.28Do not tell your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow and I will provide”— when you already have the means.29Do not devise evil against your neighbor, for he trustfully dwells beside you.30Do not accuse a man without cause, when he has done you no harm.
31Do not envy a violent manor choose any of his ways;32for the LORD detests the perverse,but He is a friend to the upright.33The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked,but He blesses the home of the righteous.34He mocks the mockers,but gives grace to the humble.235The wise will inherit honor,but fools are held up to shame.
