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,
22for suddenly their disaster will come and who knows the extent of the destruction that will come from both of them?
23These also are sayings of the wise. Partiality in judging a case at law is not good.
24Whoever says to the wicked person, “You are a righteous person,” will be cursed by peoples and hated by nations.
25But those who discipline the wicked will have delight and gifts of goodness will come to them.
26The one who gives an honest answer gives a kiss on the lips.
27Prepare your outdoor work, and make everything ready for yourself in the field; after that, build your house.
28Do not bear witness against your neighbor without cause and do not deceive with your lips.
29Do not say, “I will do to him what he has done to me; I will pay him back for what he has done.”
30I went by the field of a lazy man, past the vineyard of the man having no sense.
31Thorns had grown up everywhere, the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.
