Proverbs 29:23–24

23 Pride brings a person low,

but the lowly in spirit gain honor.

24 The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies;

they are put under oath and dare not testify.

23 A man’s pride shall bring him low:

But honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul:

He heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.

23 Pride ends in humiliation,

while humility brings honor.

24 If you assist a thief, you only hurt yourself.

You are sworn to tell the truth, but you dare not testify.

23 A man’s pride will bring him low,

But the humble in spirit will retain honor.

24 Whoever is a partner with a thief hates his own life;

He swears to tell the truth, but reveals nothing.

23 Pride will ruin people,

but those who are humble will be honored.

24 Partners of thieves are their own worst enemies.

If they have to testify in court, they are afraid to say anything.

23 A man’s pride shall bring him low;

But he that is of a lowly spirit shall obtain honor.

24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul;

He heareth the adjuration and uttereth nothing.

23 A man’s pride bringeth him low; but the humble in spirit shall obtain honour.

24 Whoso shareth with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth the adjuration, and declareth not.

23 A person’s pride will humiliate him, 

but a humble spirit gains honor. 

24 Whoever is a thief’s partner hates his own life. 

He will not testify under oath. 

23 A person’s pride will humble him,

but a humble spirit will gain honor.

24 To be a thief’s partner is to hate oneself;

he hears the curse but will not testify.

23 A person’s pride will bring humiliation,

but one who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

24 To be a partner of a thief is to hate one’s own life;

one hears the victim’s curse but discloses nothing.

23 The pride of a person will bring him humiliation,

and the lowly of spirit will obtain honor.

24 Being a partner with a thief is hating one’s life;

a curse he will hear, but not disclose.

23 If a man is proud, he will be made low.

But if he isn’t proud, he will be honored.

24 Anyone who helps a thief is his own enemy.

When he is put under oath, he doesn’t dare give witness.

23 A man’s pride will bring him low,

But a humble spirit will obtain honor.

24 He who is a partner with a thief hates his own life;

He hears the oath but tells nothing.
