Proverbs 3:27-34 Good News Bible (GNB)

27. Whenever you possibly can, do good to those who need it.

28. Never tell your neighbours to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now.

29. Don't plan anything that will hurt your neighbours; they live beside you, trusting you.

30. Don't argue with others for no reason when they have never done you any harm.

31. Don't be jealous of violent people or decide to act as they do,

32. because the Lord hates people who do evil, but he takes righteous people into his confidence.

33. The Lord puts a curse on the homes of the wicked, but blesses the homes of the righteous.

34. He has no use for conceited people, but shows favour to those who are humble.
