27 (A)Prepare your outside work,
Make it fit for yourself in the field;
And afterward build your house.

28 (B)Do not be a witness against your neighbor without cause,
[a]For would you deceive with your lips?
29 (C)Do not say, “I will do to him just as he has done to me;
I will render to the man according to his work.”
