17 Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,And do not let your heart be glad when he stumbles;
18 Lest the Lord see it, and it displease Him,And He turn away His wrath from him.
19 Do not fret because of evildoers,Nor be envious of the wicked;
20 For there will be no prospect for the evil man;The lamp of the wicked will be put out.
21 My son, fear the Lord and the king;Do not associate with those given to change;
22 For their calamity will rise suddenly,And who knows the ruin those two can bring?
23 These things also belong to the wise:It is not good to show partiality in judgment.
