Proverbs 24:14

In context

12If you say, “We knew nothing of this”—does not the one who weighs hearts understand? Does not the one who guards your life know? And will he not repay a man for what he has done? 13Eat honey, my son, for it is good, and the comb is sweet on your palate. 14Know that wisdom is the same for your soul: find it, and there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off. 15Do not lie in wait, you wicked man, against the home of the righteous; do not ravage the place where he rests. 16For the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble into ruin.
