Proverbs 24

¹⁵ Do not lie in wait, O wicked man, near the dwelling of the righteous; do not destroy his resting place.

¹⁶ For though a righteous man may fall seven times, he still gets up; but the wicked stumble in bad times.

¹⁷ Do not gloat when your enemy falls, and do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles,

¹⁹ Do not fret over evildoers, and do not be envious of the wicked.
