Proverbs 3:27-32

Modern English Version

²⁷ Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
    when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
²⁸ Do not say to your neighbor,
    “Go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give it,”
    when you have it with you.
²⁹ Do not devise evil against your neighbor,
    seeing he dwells securely by you.
³⁰ Do not strive with a man without cause,
    if he has done you no harm.

³¹ Do not envy the oppressor,
    and choose none of his ways;
³² for the perverse is an abomination to the Lord,
    but His secret counsel is with the righteous.
