New Testament

Proverbs 24:13-20 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

13. My child, eat honey because it is good.Honey from the honeycomb tastes sweet.

14. In the same way, wisdom is pleasing to you.If you find it, you have hope for the future.Your wishes will come true.

15. Don’t be like the wicked and attack a good man’s house.Don’t rob the place where he lives.

16. A good man may be bothered by trouble seven times, but he does not give up.But the wicked are overwhelmed by trouble.

17. Don’t be happy when your enemy is defeated.Don’t be glad when he is overwhelmed.

18. The Lord will notice and be displeased.Then the Lord may not be angry with him anymore.

19. Don’t envy evil people.And don’t be jealous of the wicked.

20. An evil person has nothing to hope for.The wicked will die like a flame that is put out.
