Proverbs 24:16-18

Living Bible

^15-16 O evil man, leave the upright man alone and quit trying to cheat him out of his rights. Don’t you know that this good man, though you trip him up seven times, will each time rise again? But one calamity is enough to lay you low.

¹⁷ Do not rejoice when your enemy meets trouble. Let there be no gladness when he falls— ¹⁸ for the Lord may be displeased with you and stop punishing him!
