Proverbs 29:23-25

Contemporary English Version

²³ Too much pride brings disgrace;
    humility leads to honor.
²⁴ If you take part in a crime
    you are your worst enemy,
because even under oath
    you can't tell the truth.
²⁵ Don't fall into the trap
    of being a coward—
trust the Lord,
    and you will be safe.
