Proverbs 3:29-34 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

29. Don't plan to harm your neighbor. He lives near you and trusts you.

30. Don't bring charges against a man without any reason. He has not harmed you.

31. Don't be jealous of a man who hurts others. Don't choose any of his ways.

32. The Lord really hates sinful people. But he makes honest people his closest friends.

33. The Lord puts a curse on the houses of sinners. But he blesses the homes of those who do what is right.

34. He laughs at proud people who make fun of others. But he gives grace to those who are not proud.
