Fret Not Thyself — Proverbs 24:1–12

第二十四章 CHAPTER 24
PROV 24:1–2

Be not thou envious against evil men; Neither desire to be with them:
2
For their heart studieth oppression, And their lips talk of mischief.
PROV 24:3–4
3
Through wisdom is a house builded; And by understanding it is established;
4
And by knowledge are the chambers filled With all precious and pleasant riches.

A wise man is strong; Yea, a man of knowledge increaseth might.

For by wise guidance thou shalt make thy war; And in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Wisdom is too high for a fool: He openeth not his mouth in the gate.

He that deviseth to do evil, Men shall call him a mischief-maker.

The thought of foolishness is sin; And the scoffer is an abomination to men.

If thou faint in the day of adversity, Thy strength is small.
11
Deliver them that are carried away unto death, And those that are ready to be slain see that thou hold back.

If thou sayest, Behold, we knew not this; Doth not he that weigheth the hearts consider it? And he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? And shall not he render to every man according to his work?
