Proverbs 24:10-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
10 If you do nothing in a difficult time,
your strength is limited.
11 Rescue those being taken off to death,
and save those stumbling toward slaughter.(A)
12 If you say, “But we didn’t know about this,”
won’t He who weighs hearts(B) consider it?
Won’t He who protects your life(C) know?
Won’t He repay a person according to his work?(D)
Proverbs 24:10-12
Lexham English Bible
10 If you faint on the day of adversity,
little is your strength.
11 Rescue those who are led away to the death
and those who stagger to the slaughter. If you hold back,
12 if you say, “Look, we do not know this,”
does not he who weighs hearts perceive it?
And he who keeps your soul,[a]
he knows and will repay humankind according to his deeds.
