Proverbs 24:22-27

²²For suddenly doth their calamity rise, And the ruin of them both — who knoweth!

²³These also are for the wise: — To discern faces in judgment is not good.

²⁴Whoso is saying to the wicked, 'Thou art righteous,' Peoples execrate him — nations abhor him.

²⁵And to those reproving it is pleasant, And on them cometh a good blessing.

²⁶Lips he kisseth who is returning straightforward words.

²⁷Prepare in an out-place thy work, And make it ready in the field — go afterwards, Then thou hast built thy house.
