Proverbs 24:22-28

²²For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin from them both?

²³These also are sayings of the wise. To have respect of persons in judgment is not good.

²⁴He that saith unto the wicked: 'Thou art righteous', peoples shall curse him, nations shall execrate him;

²⁵But to them that decide justly shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.

²⁶He kisseth the lips that giveth a right answer.

²⁷Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thy house.

²⁸Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips.
