15Lay not waite, (O wicked man) against the dwelling of the righteous: spoile not his resting place. 16For a iust man falleth seuen times, and riseth vp againe: but the wicked shall fall into mischiefe. 17Reioyce not when thine enemie falleth: and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: 18Lest the Lord see it, and it displease him, and hee turne away his wrath from him. 19Fret not thy selfe because of euill men; neither be thou enuious at the wicked.
