Proverbs 29:23-25

New International Reader's Version

²³Pride brings a person low.
But those whose spirits are low will be honored.

²⁴To help a thief is to become your own enemy.
When you go to court, you won’t dare to say anything.

²⁵If you are afraid of people, it will trap you.
But if you trust in the Lord, he will keep you safe.
