Proverbs 27:12-14

New Life Version

¹² A wise man sees sin and hides himself, but the fool goes on and suffers for it.

¹³ Take the man’s coat who has given himself as trust for what a stranger owes. And hold him to his promise who has given it as trust for a sinful woman.

¹⁴ He who praises his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning will be thought of as saying bad things against him.
