For the LORD shall be your confidence, and shall keep your foot from being taken. ¶
Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
Say not to your neighbor, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when you have it by you.
Devise not evil against your neighbor, seeing he dwells securely by you. ¶
Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done you no harm. ¶
Envy you not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.
For the fraudulent is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous. ¶
