24 (A)If you lie down, you will not be afraid;
    when you lie down, (B)your sleep will be sweet.
25 (C)Do not be afraid of sudden terror
    or of (D)the ruin[a] of the wicked, when it comes,
26 for the Lord will be your confidence
    and will (E)keep your foot from being caught.
27 (F)Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,[b]
    when it is in your power to do it.

28 (G)Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come again,
    tomorrow I will give it”—when you have it with you.
29 (H)Do not plan evil against your neighbor,
    who (I)dwells trustingly beside you.
