Proverbs 24:11-12
World English Bible
11 Rescue those who are being led away to death!
Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter!
12 If you say, “Behold, we didn’t know this,”
doesn’t he who weighs the hearts consider it?
He who keeps your soul, doesn’t he know it?
Shall he not render to every 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?
