Proverbs 24:26

These also are sayings of the wise:

To show partiality in judgment is not good.

He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,”

peoples will curse him, and nations will abhor him—

but it will go well with those who convict the guilty,

and a rich blessing will come on them.

Prepare your work outside,

and get your fields ready.

Afterwards, build your house.

Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without cause.

Don’t deceive with your lips.

Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me;

I will repay the man according to his work.”
