Context Reading
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, 18lest Yahweh see it, and it displease him,and he turn away his wrath from him.
