Proverbs 24:25-33 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

25. And to those reproving it is pleasant, And on them cometh a good blessing.

26. Lips he kisseth who is returning straightforward words.

27. Prepare in an out-place thy work, And make it ready in the field--go afterwards, Then thou hast built thy house.

28. Be not a witness for nought against thy neighbour, Or thou hast enticed with thy lips.

29. Say not, `As he did to me, so I do to him, I render to each according to his work.'

30. Near the field of a slothful man I passed by, And near the vineyard of a man lacking heart.

31. And lo, it hath gone up--all of it--thorns! Covered its face have nettles, And its stone wall hath been broken down.

32. And I see--I--I do set my heart, I have seen--I have received instruction,

33. A little sleep--a little slumber--A little folding of the hands to lie down.
