Proverbs 24:16-20 New English Translation (NET)

16. Although a righteous person may fall seven times, he gets up again,but the wicked will be brought down by calamity.

17. Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,and when he stumbles do not let your heart rejoice,

18. lest the Lord see it, and be displeased,and turn his wrath away from him.

19. Do not fret because of evil peopleor be envious of wicked people,

20. for the evil person has no future,and the lamp of the wicked will be extinguished.
