Proverbs 24:16

Learning From Your Father

¹⁵ Lie not in wait as a wicked man against the dwelling of the righteous; do no violence to his home; ¹⁶ For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again,
But the wicked stumble in time of calamity.
¹⁷ Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles,
