17Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he is overthrown:
18Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19Fret not thyself because of evil-doers; neither be thou envious at the wicked:
20For there will be no reward to the evil man; the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
21My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:
22For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the destruction of them both?
23These also are sayings of the wise. To have respect of persons in judgment is not good.
