Proverbs 24:11-12
Legacy Standard Bible
11 (A)Deliver those who are being taken away to death,
And those who are stumbling to the slaughter, Oh hold them back.
12 If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,”
Does not He (B)who weighs the hearts (C)understand?
And (D)does not He who (E)guards your soul know?
And will not He [a](F)render to man according to his work?

Proverbs 24:11-12
International Standard Version
11 Rescue those who are being led away to death,
and save those who stumble toward slaughter.
12 If you say, “Look here, we didn’t know about this,”
doesn’t God,[a] who examines motives,[b] discern it?
Doesn’t the one who guards your soul
know about it?
Won’t he repay each person
according to what he has done?
