Proverbs

¹³Eat honey, my son, for it is good; honey from the comb is sweet to your taste. ¹⁴Know also that wisdom is like honey for you: If you find it, there is a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off. ¹⁵Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous, do not plunder their dwelling place; ¹⁶for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes. ¹⁷Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice, ¹⁸or the Lord will see and disapprove and turn his wrath away from them. ¹⁹Do not fret because of evildoers or be envious of the wicked,
