Proverbs 29:27

Verse 27 of 27. The 29th of 31 chapters in Proverbs, in Poetry and Wisdom.

23A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.

24Whoever is an accomplice of a thief is an enemy of his own soul. He takes an oath, but dares not testify.

25The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in the LORD is kept safe.

26Many seek the ruler’s favor, but a man’s justice comes from the LORD.

27A dishonest man detests the righteous, and the upright in their ways detest the wicked.
