- For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
- Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:
- Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
- Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked:
- For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
|
- for though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity.
- Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when he stumbles, do not let your heart rejoice,
- or the LORD will see and disapprove and turn his wrath away from him.
- Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of the wicked,
- for the evil man has no future hope, and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

- My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:
- For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?
|
- Fear the LORD and the king, my son, and do not join with the rebellious,
- for those two will send sudden destruction upon them, and who knows what calamities they can bring? Further Sayings of the Wise
