Proverbs 3:27-35

271Do not withhold good from 2those to whom it is due, When it is in your power to do it.283Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come back, And tomorrow I will give it,” When you have it with you.294Do not devise harm against your neighbor, While he lives securely beside you.305Do not contend with a man without cause, If he has done you no harm.316Do not envy a man of violence And do not choose any of his ways.32For the 7devious are an abomination to the Lord; But 8He is 9intimate with the upright.33The 10curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked, But He 11blesses the dwelling of the righteous.34Though 12He scoffs at the scoffers, Yet 13He gives grace to the afflicted.3514The wise will inherit honor, But fools 15display dishonor.
