27 Prepare your work outside,
And (A)make it ready for yourself in the field;
Afterward, then, build your house.

28 Do not be a (B)witness against your neighbor for no reason,
And (C)do not deceive with your lips.
29 (D)Do not say, “I shall do the same to him as he has done to me;
I will [a]repay the person according to his work.”
