Proverbs 24:26-31

²⁶and men will kiss lips that answer well.

²⁷Prepare your works for your going forth, and prepare yourself for the field; and come after me, and you shall rebuild your house.

²⁸Be not a false witness against your fellow citizen, neither exaggerate with your lips.

²⁹Say not, As he has treated me, so will I treat him, and I will avenge myself on him for that wherein he has injured me.

³⁰A foolish man is like a farm, and a senseless man is like a vineyard.

³¹If you let him alone, he will altogether remain barren and covered with weeds; and he becomes destitute, and his stone walls are broken down.
