15. Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous. Don’t destroy his resting place:
16. for a righteous man falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
17. Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
18. lest Yahweh see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19. Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
20. for there will be no reward to the evil man; and the lamp of the wicked shall be snuffed out.
21. My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don’t join those who are rebellious:
22. for their calamity will rise suddenly; the destruction from them both—who knows?
23. These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good.
