Proverbs 24:14-20

New International Version

¹⁴ Know also that wisdom is like honey for you:
    If you find it, there is a future hope for you,
    and your hope will not be cut off.^(A)

¹⁵ Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous,
    do not plunder their dwelling place;
¹⁶ for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again,
    but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.^(B)

¹⁷ Do not gloat^(C) when your enemy falls;
    when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice,^(D)
18 or the Lord will see and disapprove
    and turn his wrath away from them.^(E)

¹⁹ Do not fret^(F) because of evildoers
    or be envious of the wicked,
²⁰ for the evildoer has no future hope,
    and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.^(G)
