14. So also is the doctrine of wisdom to thy soul: which when thou hast found, thou shalt have hope in the end, and thy hope shall not perish.
15. Lie not in wait, nor seek after wickedness in the house of the just, nor spoil his rest.
16. For a just mall shall fall seven times and shall rise again: but the wicked shall fall down into evil.
17. When thy enemy shall fall, be not glad, and in his ruin let not thy heart rejoice:
18. Lest the Lord see, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19. Contend not with the wicked, nor seek to be like the ungodly:
20. For evil men have no hope of things to come, and the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
21. My son, fear the Lord and the king: and have nothing to do with detracters.
22. For their destruction shall rise suddenly: and who knoweth the ruin of both?
23. These things also to the wise: It is not good to have respect to persons in judgment.
