Saying 27

15 Don’t hide and wait like a burglar near a godly person’s house.
    Don’t rob their home.
16 Even if godly people fall down seven times, they always get up.
    But those who are evil trip and fall when trouble comes.

Saying 28

17 Don’t be happy when your enemy falls.
    When he trips, don’t let your heart be glad.
