Proverbs 24:
Never lie in wait against a godly
man’s house. The godly may fall many times and still rise up, but the wicked
fall to calamity. Do not rejoice or celebrate the fall of your enemies or God
will remove his wrath from him. It is a waste to envy and fret because of evil
men because they have no future and will never last. Judge fairly and never
convict the innocent because the people and nations will curse and denounce
you. Never say I will pay you back or testify falsely against your neighbor
without cause.
Proverbs 25:
Remove the wicked and a king’s
throne is established on righteousness. Do not exalt yourself among kings and
nobles, rather, let them call you up. Through patience a ruler is persuaded.
Emptiness is the man who boasts of gifts he never gave or work he never did.
Give food and drink to your enemy when they need it so that God can increase
their punishment. The godly should never give way to the wicked nor seek one’s
own honor. |
