Proverbs 24:15-21

¹⁵Do not lie in wait like the wicked person who attacks the house of the righteous person. Do not destroy his home!

¹⁶For the righteous person falls down seven times and rises again, but wicked people are brought down by calamity.

¹⁷Do not celebrate when your enemy falls and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles,

¹⁸or Yahweh will see and disapprove and turn away his wrath from him.

¹⁹Do not worry because of evildoers, and do not envy wicked people,

²⁰for the evil person has no future and the lamp of wicked people will go out.

²¹Fear Yahweh, and fear the king, my son; do not associate with those who rebel against them,
