Proverbs 24:23-34

23These thingsH428 alsoH1571 come from the wiseH2450. It is not goodH2896 to have respect of persons in judgmentH4941. 24He that saith unto the wickedH7563, Thou art righteousH6662, peoplesH5971 shall curse him, nations shall abhor him; 25but to them that rebukeH3198 [him] shall be delight, and a goodH2896 blessingH1293 cometh upon them. 26He kisseth the lipsH8193 who giveth a rightH5228 answer. 27PrepareH3559 thy workH4399 without, and put thy fieldH7704 in order, and afterwards buildH1129 thy houseH1004. 28BeH1961 not a witnessH5707 against thy neighbour without causeH2600; and wouldest thou deceive 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 a sluggardH6102, and by the vineyardH3754 of a manH376 void of understanding; 31and lo, it was all grown over with thistles, and nettlesH2738 had coveredH3680 the faceH6440 thereof, and its stoneH68 wallH1444 was brokenH2040 downH2040. 32Then I lookedH7200, I tookH3947 it to heartH3820; I sawH7200, I receivedH3947 instruction: 33— A littleH4592 sleepH8142, a littleH4592 slumberH8572, a littleH4592 foldingH2264 of the handsH3027 to restH7901! 34So shall thy povertyH7389 comeH935 [as] a roving plunderer, and thy penury as an armed manH376.
