29 Do not devise evil against your neighbor, || And he sitting confidently with you. Do not plan evil against your neighbor, who dwells trustingly beside you. Do not plot harm against your neighbor, who lives trustfully near you.
30 Do not strive with a man without cause, || If he has not done you evil. Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm. Do not accuse anyone for no reason— when they have done you no harm.
31 Do not be envious of a man of violence, || Nor fix on any of his ways. Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways, Do not envy the violent or choose any of their ways.
32 For the perverted [is] an abomination to YHWH, || And His secret counsel [is] with the upright. for the devious person is an abomination to the LORD, but the upright are in his confidence. For the LORD detests the perverse but takes the upright into his confidence.
33 The curse of YHWH [is] in the house of the wicked. And He blesses the habitation of the righteous. The LORD’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the dwelling of the righteous. The LORD’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous.
34 If He scorns the scorners, || Yet He gives grace to the humble. Toward the scorners he is scornful, but to the humble he gives favor. He mocks proud mockers but shows favor to the humble and oppressed.
35 The wise inherit glory, || And fools are bearing away shame! The wise will inherit honor, but fools get disgrace. The wise inherit honor, but fools get only shame.
