16 A righteous person may fall seven times, but he gets up again.However, in a disaster wicked people fall.
17 Do not be happy when your enemy falls,and do not feel glad when he stumbles.
18 The Lord will see it, he won’t like it,and he will turn his anger away from that person.
19 Do not get overly upset with evildoers.Do not envy wicked people,
20 because an evil person has no future,and the lamps of wicked people will be snuffed out.
21 Fear the Lord, my son.Fear the king as well.Do not associate with those who always insist upon change,
22 because disaster will come to them suddenly.Who knows what misery both may bring?
