11 If you see someone on their way to death or in danger of being killed, you must do something to save them.
12 You cannot say, “It’s none of my business.” The Lord knows everything, and he knows why you do things. He watches you, and he will pay you back for what you do.
13 My son, eat honey; it is good. Honey straight from the honeycomb is the sweetest.
14 In the same way, know that wisdom is good for you. Wisdom will give you something to hope for that will not disappoint you.
15 Don’t be like a criminal who makes plans to rob those who are good or take away their homes.
16 Good people might fall again and again, but they always get up. It is the wicked who are defeated by their troubles.
17 Don’t be happy when your enemy has troubles. Don’t be glad when they fall.
