New Testament

Proverbs 24:13-18 American Standard Version (ASV)

13. My son, eat thou honey, for it is good; And the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to thy taste:

14. So shalt thou know wisdom to be unto thy soul; If thou hast found it, then shall there be a reward, And thy hope shall not be cut off.

15. Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous; Destroy not his resting-place:

16. For a righteous man falleth seven times, and riseth up again; But the wicked are overthrown by calamity.

17. Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, And let not thy heart be glad when he is overthrown;

18. Lest Jehovah see it, and it displease him, And he turn away his wrath from him.
