10. If you faint in the day of adversity,your strength is small.
11. If you refrain to deliver those who are drawn unto death,and those who are ready to be slain;
12. if you say, “Surely we did not know this,”does not He who ponders the heart consider it?And He who keeps your soul, does He not know it?And will He not render to every man according to his works?
13. My son, eat honey because it is good,and the honeycomb that is sweet to your taste;
14. so shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul;when you have found it, then there will be a reward,and your expectation will not be cut off.
