Proverbs 3:27-35

View Full Chapter

27Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act.

28Do not say to your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow and I’ll give it to you”— when you already have it with you.

29Do not plot harm against your neighbor, who lives trustfully near you.

30Do not accuse anyone for no reason— when they have done you no harm.

31Do not envy the violent or choose any of their ways.

32For the LORD detests the perverse but takes the upright into his confidence.

33The LORD ’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous.

34He mocks proud mockers but shows favor to the humble and oppressed. 35The wise inherit honor, but fools get only shame.
