Proverbs 3:27-35

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²⁷ Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,^[a]
    when it is in your power to do it.^(A)
28 Do not say to your neighbor, “Go and come again;
    tomorrow I will give it,” when you have it with you.^(B)
29 Do not plan harm against your neighbor
    who lives trustingly beside you.^(C)
30 Do not quarrel with anyone without cause,
    when no harm has been done to you.^(D)
31 Do not envy the violent,
    and do not choose any of their ways,^(E)
32 for the perverse are an abomination to the Lord,
    but the upright are in his confidence.^(F)
33 The Lord’s curse is on the house of the wicked,
    but he blesses the abode of the righteous.^(G)
34 Toward the scorners he is scornful,
    but to the humble he shows favor.^(H)
35 The wise will inherit honor,
    but stubborn fools, disgrace.
