20:023:034 Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast. 20:023:035 They have stricken me, shalt thou say, and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again. 20:024:001 Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them. 20:024:002 For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief. 20:024:003 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: 20:024:004 And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches. 20:024:005 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength. 20:024:006 For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. 20:024:007 Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate. 20:024:008 He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person. 20:024:009 The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men. 20:024:010 If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. 20:024:011 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; 20:024:012 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works? 20:024:013 My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: 20:024:014 So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off. 20:024:015 Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place: 20:024:016 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief. 20:024:017 Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: 20:024:018 Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him. 20:024:019 Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked: 20:024:020 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out. 20:024:021 My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change: 20:024:022 For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both? 20:024:023 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
