11 Save those who are being led away to death. Hold back those who are about to be killed.
12 Don't say, "But we didn't know anything about this." The One who knows what you are thinking sees it. The One who guards your life knows it. He will pay each person back for what he has done.
13 Eat honey, my child. It is good. Honey from a honeycomb has a sweet taste.
14 I want you to know that wisdom is sweet to you. If you find it, there is hope for you tomorrow. So your hope will not be cut off.
15 Don't hide and wait like a burglar at a godly person's house. Don't rob his home.
16 Even if godly people fall down seven times, they always get up. But those who are evil are brought down by trouble.
17 Don't be happy when your enemy falls. When he trips, don't let your heart be glad.
