Proverbs 24:7-12

English Standard Version Anglicised

⁷ Wisdom is ^(A)too high for a fool;
    in ^(B)the gate he does not open his mouth.
⁸ Whoever ^(C)plans to do evil
    will be called a schemer.
^9 (D)The devising^[a] of folly is sin,
    and ^(E)the scoffer is an abomination to mankind.
¹⁰ If you ^(F)faint in the day of adversity,
    your strength is small.
^11 (G)Rescue those who are being taken away to death;
    hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter.
¹² If you say, “Behold, we did not know this”,
    ^(H)does not he who ^(I)weighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who ^(J)keeps watch over your soul know it,
    and will he not repay man ^(K)according to his work?
