13. Eat honey, my son, for it is good; and a honeycomb is sweet to thy taste:
14. so consider wisdom for thy soul; if thou hast found it, there shall be a result, and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
15. Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; lay not waste his resting-place.
16. For the righteous falleth seven times, and riseth up again; but the wicked stumble into disaster.
17. Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thy heart be glad when he stumbleth;
18. lest Jehovah see it, and it be evil in his sight, and he turn away his anger from him.
19. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, and be not envious of the wicked:
20. for there shall be no future to the evil man; the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
21. My son, fear Jehovah and the king: meddle not with them that are given to change.
22. For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?
23. These things also come from the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
