11 Deliver them that are carried away unto death,
And those that are [a]ready to be slain [b]see that thou hold back.
12 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew not [c]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?
13 My son, eat thou honey, for it is good;
And the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to thy taste:
