Proverbs 3



<< Proverbs 3 >>
GOD'S WORD ® Translation
 

25Do not be afraid of sudden terror or of the destruction of wicked people when it comes.

26The LORD will be your confidence. He will keep your foot from getting caught.

27Do not hold back anything good from those who are entitled to it when you have the power to do so.

28When you have the good thing with you, do not tell your neighbor, "Go away! Come back tomorrow. I'll give you something then."

29Do not plan to do something wrong to your neighbor while he is sitting there with you and suspecting nothing.

30Do not quarrel with a person for no reason if he has not harmed you.

31Do not envy a violent person. Do not choose any of his ways.

32The devious person is disgusting to the LORD. The LORD's intimate advice is with decent people.

33The LORD curses the house of wicked people, but he blesses the home of righteous people.

34When he mocks the mockers, he is gracious to humble people.

35Wise people will inherit honor, but fools will bear disgrace.
