Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.
For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Yahweh.
Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good.
Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.
An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith Yahweh.
