Proverbs 24:15 (WEB)
Context Reading
13My son, eat honey, for it is good,the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste; 14so you shall know wisdom to be to your soul.If you have found it, then there will be a reward:Your hope will not be cut off. 15Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous.Don’t destroy his resting place; 16for a righteous man falls seven times and rises up again,but the wicked are overthrown by calamity. 17Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls.Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown,
