Proverbs 24:29-31
Legacy Standard Bible
29 (A)Do not say, “As he did to me so I shall do to him;
I will [a]render to the man according to his work.”
30 I passed by the field of the sluggard
And by the vineyard of the man (B)lacking a heart of wisdom,
31 And behold, it was completely [b](C)overgrown with thistles;
[c](D)Nettles have covered its surface,
And its stone (E)wall has been torn down.

Proverbs 24:29-31
New International Version
29 Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me;
I’ll pay them back for what they did.”(A)
30 I went past the field of a sluggard,(B)
past the vineyard of someone who has no sense;
31 thorns had come up everywhere,
the ground was covered with weeds,
and the stone wall was in ruins.
