16for a upright man falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
17Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
18lest Adonai see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
20for there will be no reward to the evil man; and the lamp candle of the wicked shall be snuffed out.
21My son, fear Adonai and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious:
22for their calamity will rise suddenly; the destruction from them both— who knows?
