Proverbs 24:18-23 World English Bible (WEB)

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.
