15. Do not lie in wait, O wrong one, Against the dwelling of the righteous; Do not ravage his resting place;
16. For seven times a righteous man falls and rises, But the wrong one stumbles into evil.
17. Do not exult when your enemy falls, And let not your heart rejoice when he stumbles;
18. Lest יהוה see and it be evil in His eyes, And He turn away His wrath from him.
19. Do not fret because of evil-doers, And do not envy the wrong;
20. For there is no future for the evil-doer; The lamp of the wrongdoers is put out.
21. My son, fear יהוה and the sovereign; Do not mingle with those who change;
22. For their calamity arises suddenly, And who knows the ruin of both of them?
23. These also are for the wise: It is not good to show partiality in right-ruling.
