Trusting in the Lord

²⁷Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it’s in your power to help them.

²⁸If you can help your neighbor now, don’t say, “Come back tomorrow, and then I’ll help you.”

²⁹Don’t plot harm against your neighbor, for those who live nearby trust you.

³⁰Don’t pick a fight without reason, when no one has done you harm.

³¹Don’t envy violent people or copy their ways.

³²Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to the godly.

³³The Lord curses the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the upright.

³⁴The Lord mocks the mockers but is gracious to the humble.

³⁵The wise inherit honor, but fools are put to shame!
