Proverbs 24:11-13

New Living Translation

¹¹ Rescue those who are unjustly sentenced to die;
    save them as they stagger to their death.
¹² Don’t excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know.”
    For God understands all hearts, and he sees you.
He who guards your soul knows you knew.
    He will repay all people as their actions deserve.

¹³ My child,^[a] eat honey, for it is good,
    and the honeycomb is sweet to the taste.
