Proverbs 3:29

Modern King James Version

Do not plan evil against your neighbor, since he dwells trustingly by you.

See the chapter Copy

perversity is in his heart; he is always planning mischief; he causes fighting.

a heart that plots wicked plans, feet hurrying to run to evil,

For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul; the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Jehovah.

He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; he has broken his covenant.

For they do not speak peace; but they think deceitful things against the quiet ones of the earth.

Do not those who think evil go astray? But mercy and truth shall be to those who think of good.

And let each devise no evil in your heart against his neighbor; and love no false oath. For all these are things that I hate, says Jehovah.

And do not crush the widow or the orphan, the alien or the poor. And do not devise evil in your heart, of a man against his brother.
