Proverbs 21:28-30
Contemporary English Version

28 If you tell lies in court,
    you are done for;
only a reliable witness
    can do the job.
29 Wicked people bluff their way,
but God's people think
    before they take a step.

30 No matter how much you know
or what plans you make,
    you can't defeat the Lord.
