Proverbs 24:26-31

²⁶An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.

²⁷Prepare your work outside, and get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house.

²⁸Don’t be a witness against your neighbour without cause. Don’t deceive with your lips.

²⁹Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will repay the man according to his work.”

³⁰I went by the field of the sluggard, by the vineyard of the man void of understanding.

³¹Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.
