²⁹ Do not plot harm against your neighbor
    who dwells in confidence beside you.

6 My child, if you have pledged to your neighbor,
    if you have bound yourself^[a] to the stranger,

³ do this, then, my child, and save yourself,
    for you have come into the palm of your neighbor’s hand:^[a]
    Go, humble yourself, plead with your neighbor.

²⁹ A person of violence will entice his neighbor
    and cause him to walk on a way that is not good.

¹⁰ The soul^[a] of the wicked desires evil;
    his neighbor will not find mercy in his eyes.

¹⁷ Make your foot scarce in the house of your neighbor,
    lest he become weary of you and hate you.

¹⁰ As for your friend and a friend of your father, do not forsake them,
    and the house of your brother, do not enter on the day of your calamity.
    Better is a close neighbor than a distant brother.

¹⁴ He who blesses his neighbor with a loud voice
    early in the morning,
    a curse will be reckoned to him.
