Proverbs 24:26-31

²⁶He that answereth with rightful or right words, shall kiss lips.

²⁷Make ready thy work withoutforth, and work thy field diligently, that thou build thine house afterward.

²⁸Be thou not a witness without reasonable cause against thy neighbour; neither flatter thou any man with thy lips.

²⁹Say thou not, As he did to me, so I shall do to him, and I shall yield to each man after his work.

³⁰I passed by the field of a slow man, and by the vinery or the vineyard of a fond or foolish man;

³¹and lo! nettles had filled all, thorns had covered the higher part thereof, and the wall of stones without mortar was destroyed.
