Proverbs 24:11-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
11 Rescue those being taken off to death,
and save those stumbling toward slaughter.(A)
12 If you say, “But we didn’t know about this,”
won’t He who weighs hearts(B) consider it?
Won’t He who protects your life(C) know?
Won’t He repay a person according to his work?(D)
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?
