Proverbs 24:15

Learning From Your Father

¹⁴ realize that wisdom is the same for you.
If you find it, you will have a future,
and your hope will never fade. ¹⁵ Wicked man, don’t set an ambush,
at the camp of the righteous man;
don’t destroy his dwelling.
¹⁶ Though a righteous man falls seven times,
he will get up,
but the wicked will stumble into ruin.
