Proverbs 24:11-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 if you hold back from rescuing those taken away to death,
those who go staggering to the slaughter;(A)
12 if you say, “Look, we did not know this”—
does not he who weighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it?
And will he not repay all according to their deeds?(B)
Proverbs 24:11-12
Evangelical Heritage Version
11 Rescue captives condemned to death,
and spare those staggering toward slaughter.
12 If you say, “We did not know about this,”
won’t the one who weighs motives notice?
Won’t the one who guards your life know about it,
and won’t he repay people according to what each one has done?
