Don't hold back good from those who are worthy of it. Don't hold it back when you can help. ( Please translate this, i don't understand it ) P.S.Its in Proverbs 3:27

Don't hold back good from those who are worthy of it. Give good things to people who are deserving.

Don't hold it back when you can help.
Give what you can if it's helpful to others.

Here's another translation:
Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it’s in your power to help them.

In both translations, "good" means help or helpful things or doing anything good for your fellow humans.

Thank you very much Writeacher. I really totally appreciate it! :)

The phrase you mentioned is from the book of Proverbs, specifically Proverbs 3:27. In this verse, it advises not to withhold good or help from people who deserve it or are worthy of it. It reminds us that if we have the ability to provide assistance or support, we should not hesitate to offer it. Essentially, it encourages generosity and kindness towards others who are deserving, emphasizing the importance of helping when we can.
