27Withhold not good from them to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of thy hand to do it.
28Say not unto thy neighbor, Go, and come again,
And to-morrow I will give;
When thou hast it by thee.
29Devise not evil against thy neighbor,
Seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.
30Strive not with a man without cause,
If he have done thee no harm.
