¹³ Eat ^(A)honey, my son, for it is good,
Indeed, the ^(B)honey from the comb is sweet to your taste;
¹⁴ Know that ^(C)wisdom is thus for your soul;
If you find it, then there will be a ^[a](D)future,
And your hope will not be cut off.

¹⁶ For a ^(A)righteous man falls seven times, and rises again,
But the ^(B)wicked will stumble in ^[a]calamity.

²⁰ For ^(A)there will be no ^[a](B)future for the evil one;
The ^(C)lamp of the wicked will go out.

²¹ My son, ^[b](D)fear Yahweh and the king;
Do not associate with those who change,
²² For suddenly their ^(E)disaster will rise,
And who knows the upheaval that comes from both of them?
