¹⁷ Don’t be happy when your enemy is defeated.
    Don’t be glad when he is overwhelmed.
¹⁸ The Lord will notice and be displeased.
    Then the Lord may not be angry with him anymore.

²¹ If your enemy is hungry, feed him.
    If he is thirsty, give him a drink.
²² Doing this will be like pouring burning coals on his head.
    And the Lord will reward you.

⁶ The slap of a friend can be trusted to help you.
    But the kisses of an enemy are nothing but lies.
