Proverbs 24:23-34
23TheseH428 also are sayings of the wiseH2450. To have respectH6440 of persons in judgmentH4941 is notH1571 goodH2896. 24He that saith unto the wickedH7563, Thou art righteousH6662; peoplesH5971 shall curse him, nationsH5971 shall abhorH2194 him: 25But to them that rebukeH3198 him shall be delightH5276, and a goodH2896 blessingH1293 shall comeH935 uponH5921 them. 26He kisseth the lipsH8193 that giveth a rightH5228 answerH7725. 27PrepareH3559 thy workH4399 without, and makeH3559 it readyH3559 for thee in the fieldH7704; and afterwardsH310 buildH1129 thine houseH1004. 28Be notH408 a witnessH5707 againstH7453 thy neighbour withoutH2600 causeH2600; and deceive notH408 with thy lipsH8193. 29SayH559 notH408, I will doH6213 soH3651 to him as he hath doneH6213 to meH7725; I will renderH7725 to the manH376 accordingH376 to his workH6467. 30I wentH376 by the fieldH7704 of the slothful, and by the vineyardH3754 of the manH376 void of understandingH3820; 31And, loH2009, it was allH3605 grown over with thorns, the faceH6440 thereof was coveredH3680 with nettlesH2738, and the stoneH68 wallH1444 thereof was brokenH2040 downH2040. 32Then I beheld, and consideredH7200 wellH3820: I sawH7200, and receivedH3947 instructionH4148. 33Yet a littleH4592 sleepH8142, a littleH4592 slumberH8572, a littleH4592 foldingH2264 of the handsH3027 to sleepH8142: 34SoH1980 shall thy povertyH7389 comeH935 as a robberH1980; and thy wantH4270 as an armedH4043 manH376.
