Proverbs 24:13-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 24
13
My son, eat honey, for it is good;
Yes, the honey from the comb is sweet to your taste;
14
Know
that
wisdom is the same for your soul;
If you find
it,
then there will be a future,
And your hope will not be cut off.
15
Do not lie in ambush, you wicked person, against the home of the righteous;
Do not destroy his resting place;
16
For a righteous person falls seven times and rises again,
But the wicked stumble in
time of
disaster.
King James Version
Chapter 24
13
My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:
14
So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.
15
Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:
16
For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 24
13
Eat honey, my son, for it is good,
and the honeycomb is sweet to your palate;
14
realize that wisdom is the same for you.
If you find it, you will have a future,
and your hope will never fade.
15
Don’t set an ambush, you wicked one,
at the camp of the righteous man;
don’t destroy his dwelling.
16
Though a righteous person falls seven times,
he will get up,
but the wicked will stumble into ruin.
New Living Translation
Chapter 24
13
My child, eat honey, for it is good,
and the honeycomb is sweet to the taste.
14
In the same way, wisdom is sweet to your soul.
If you find it, you will have a bright future,
and your hopes will not be cut short.
15
Don’t wait in ambush at the home of the godly,
and don’t raid the house where the godly live.
16
The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again.
But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.
English Standard Version
Chapter 24
13
My son, eat honey, for it is good,
and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste.
14
Know that wisdom is such to your soul;
if you find it, there will be a future,
and your hope will not be cut off.
15
Lie not in wait as a wicked man against the dwelling of the righteous;
do no violence to his home;
16
for the righteous falls seven times and rises again,
but the wicked stumble in times of calamity.
New International Version
Chapter 24
13
Eat honey, my son, for it is good;
honey from the comb is sweet to your taste.
14
Know also that wisdom is like honey for you:
If you find it, there is a future hope for you,
and your hope will not be cut off.
15
Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous,
do not plunder their dwelling place;
16
for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again,
but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.
New King James Version
Chapter 24
13
My son, eat honey because
it is
good,
And the honeycomb
which is
sweet to your taste;
14
So
shall
the knowledge of wisdom
be
to your soul;
If you have found
it,
there is a prospect,
And your hope will not be cut off.
15
Do not lie in wait, O wicked
man,
against the dwelling of the righteous;
Do not plunder his resting place;
16
For a righteous
man
may fall seven times
And rise again,
But the wicked shall fall by calamity.
