Proverbs 24:28-34 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

28. Don’t testify against your neighbor for no good reason.Don’t say things that are false.

29. Don’t say, “I’ll get even with that man.I’ll do to him what he did to me.”

30. I passed by a lazy person’s field.I went by the vineyard of a man who had no sense.

31. Thorns had grown up everywhere.The ground was covered with weeds.And the stone walls had fallen down.

32. I thought about what I had seen.I learned this lesson from what I saw.

33. You sleep a little; you take a nap.You fold your hands and rest.

34. Soon you will be poor, as if you had been robbed.You will have as little as if you had been held up.
