Proverbs 24:11-16

¹¹Rescue those who are being led away to be executed; save those who are stumbling on their way to be slaughtered.

¹²If you say, “Look, we didn't know anything about this,” don't you think the God who judges your motives will see what's happening? He who watches over you knows, and he will pay people back for what they've done.

¹³My son, eating honey is good for you; the honeycomb tastes sweet.

¹⁴In the same way, you should know that wisdom is good for you; if you find it, there will be a future for you, and your hope will not be crushed.

¹⁵Don't be like a criminal waiting to ambush the home of good people; don't attack the place where they live.

¹⁶Those who do right may fall down seven times, and still get up again; but the wicked are brought down by disaster.
