Proverbs 29:24-26
International Children’s Bible
24 The partner of a thief is his own worst enemy.
He has to testify in court, but he is afraid to say anything.
25 Being afraid of people can get you into trouble.
But if you trust the Lord, you will be safe.
26 Many people want to be heard by a ruler.
But fairness comes from the Lord.
Proverbs 29:24-26
New International Version
24 The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies;
they are put under oath and dare not testify.(A)
Proverbs 29:24-26

24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe.
26 Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment cometh from the Lord.
