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
New Living Translation
11 Rescue those who are unjustly sentenced to die;
save them as they stagger to their death.
12 Don’t excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know.”
For God understands all hearts, and he sees you.
He who guards your soul knows you knew.
He will repay all people as their actions deserve.
