Proverbs 3:27

Compare all

25 ^aDo not be afraid of sudden terror,
Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;

26 For the Lord will be your confidence,
And will keep your foot from being caught.

27 ^aDo not withhold good from¹ those to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of your hand to do so.

28 ^aDo not say to your neighbor,
“Go, and come back,
And tomorrow I will give it,”
When you have it with you.

29 Do not devise evil against your neighbor,
For he dwells by you for safety’s sake.

30 ^aDo not strive with a man without cause,
If he has done you no harm.

31 ^aDo not envy the oppressor,
And choose none of his ways;

32 For the perverse person is an abomination to the Lord,
^aBut His secret counsel is with the upright.

33 ^aThe curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked,
But ^bHe blesses the home of the just.

34 ^aSurely He scorns the scornful,
But gives grace to the humble.

35 The wise shall inherit glory,
But shame shall be the legacy of fools.
