6War is carried on with generalship, and aid is supplied to the heart of a counsellor.
7Wisdom and good understanding are in the gates of the wise: the wise turn not aside from the mouth of the Lord,
8but deliberate in council. Death befalls uninstructed men.
9The fools also dies in sins; and uncleanness attaches to a pestilent man.
10He shall be defiled in the evil day, and in the day of affliction, until he be utterly consumed.
11Deliver them that are led away to death, and redeem them that are appointed to be slain; spare not your help.
12But if you should say, I know not this man; know that the Lord knows the hearts of all; and he that formed breath for all, he knows all things, who renders to every man according to his works.
13My son, eat honey, for the honeycomb is good, that your throat may be sweetened.
14Thus shall you perceive wisdom in your soul: for if you find it, your end shall be good, and hope shall not fail you.
15Bring not an ungodly man into the dwelling of the righteous: neither be deceived by the feeding of the belly.
16For a righteous man will fall seven times, and rise again: but the ungodly shall be without strength in troubles.
17If your enemy should fall, rejoice not over him, neither be elated at his overthrow.
18For the Lord will see it, and it will not please him, and he will turn away his wrath from him.
19Rejoice not in evil-doers, neither be envious of sinners.
