American Standard Version
Proverbs 24:14-16
American Standard Version
14 So shalt thou know wisdom to be unto thy soul;
If thou hast found it, then shall there be a reward,
And thy hope shall not be cut off.
15 Lay not wait, [a]O wicked man, against the [b]habitation of the righteous;
Destroy not his [c]resting-place:
16 For a righteous man falleth seven times, and riseth up again;
But the wicked are overthrown by calamity.

Saying 27
15 Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous,
do not plunder their dwelling place;

but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.(B)
