11Be the saviour of those who are given up to death, and do not keep back help from those who are slipping to destruction.
12If you say, See, we had no knowledge of this: does not the tester of hearts give thought to it? and he who keeps your soul, has he no knowledge of it? and will he not give to every man the reward of his work?
13My son, take honey, for it is good; and the flowing honey, which is sweet to your taste:
14So let your desire be for wisdom: if you have it, there will be a future, and your hope will not be cut off.
15Do not keep a secret watch, O evil-doer, against the fields of the upright man, or send destruction on his resting-place:
16For an upright man, after falling seven times, will get up again: but trouble is the downfall of the evil.
17Do not be glad at the fall of your hater, and let not your heart have joy at his downfall:
