Sirach 9:11-13 World English Bible (WEB)

11. Envy not the glory of a sinner; For you know not what shall be his overthrow.

12. Delight not in the delights of the ungodly: Remember they shall not go unpunished to the grave.

13. Keep you far from the man that has power to kill, And you shall have no suspicion of the fear of death: And if you come to him, commit no fault, Lest he take away your life: Know surely that you go about in the midst of snares, And walk upon the battlements of a city.
