Proverbs 24:27-29

Common English Bible

²⁷ Get your outside work done;
    make preparations in the field;
    then you can build your house.

²⁸ Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without reason;
    don’t deceive with your lips.
²⁹ Don’t say, “I’ll do to them what they did to me.
    I’ll pay them back for their actions.”
