¹³ My son, eat honey because it is good,
    and the honeycomb that is sweet to your taste;
¹⁴ so shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul;
    when you have found it, then there will be a reward,
    and your expectation will not be cut off.

¹⁶ for a just man falls seven times and rises up again,
    but the wicked will fall into mischief.

²⁰ for there will be no reward to the evil man;
    the candle of the wicked will be put out.

²¹ My son, fear the Lord and the king;
    and do not meddle with those who are given to change;
²² for their calamity will rise suddenly,
    and who knows the ruin of them both?
