¹² The Lord watches over anyone with knowledge,
    but he ruins the plans^[a] of the unfaithful.

¹⁷ Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls;
    don’t let yourself be glad when he stumbles.
¹⁸ Otherwise the Lord will observe and disapprove,
    and he will turn his anger away from him.

⁵ Everything God says is pure;
    he is a shield for those who take refuge in him.
⁶ Don’t add to his words,
    or he will rebuke you,
        and you will be shown to be a liar.
