²⁹ Do not plan harm against your neighbor
    who lives trustingly beside you.^(A)

6 My child, if you have given your pledge to your neighbor,
    if you have bound yourself to another,^[a](A)

³ So do this, my child, and save yourself,
    for you have come into your neighbor’s power:
    go, hurry,^[a] and plead with your neighbor.

²⁹ The violent entice their neighbors
    and lead them in a way that is not good.^(A)

¹⁰ The souls of the wicked desire evil;
    their neighbors find no mercy in their eyes.^(A)

¹⁷ Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor’s house,
    lest the neighbor become weary of you and hate you.

¹⁰ Do not forsake your friend or the friend of your parent;
    do not go to the house of your kindred in the day of your calamity.
Better is a neighbor who is nearby
    than kindred who are far away.^(A)

¹⁴ Whoever blesses a neighbor with a loud voice,
    rising early in the morning,
    will be counted as cursing.
