Chapter 24 Be not thou envious against
evil men, neither desire to be with them,

00:07.360 --> 00:11.140
for their hearts studieth destruction,
and their lips talk of mischief.

00:12.020 --> 00:16.020
Through wisdom is an house builded,
and by understanding it is established,

00:16.580 --> 00:20.120
and by knowledge shall the chambers be
filled with all precious and pleasant

00:20.120 --> 00:20.460
riches.

00:21.520 --> 00:25.720
A wise man is strong, yea, a man of
knowledge increaseth strength.

00:25.720 --> 00:31.240
For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy
war, and in multitude of counsellors there

00:31.240 --> 00:31.740
is safety.

00:32.720 --> 00:37.040
Wisdom is too high for a fool,
he openeth not his mouth in the gate.

00:37.880 --> 00:40.760
He that deviseth to do evil shall be
called a mischievous person.

00:41.840 --> 00:46.620
The thought of foolishness is sin,
and the scorner is an abomination to men.

00:47.460 --> 00:51.000
If thou faint in the day of adversity,
thy strength is small.

00:51.500 --> 00:55.440
If thou forbear to deliver them that are
drawn unto death, and those that are ready

00:55.440 --> 01:00.480
to be slain, if thou sayest, Behold,
we knew it not, doth not he that pondereth

01:00.480 --> 01:01.380
the heart consider it?

01:01.780 --> 01:06.220
And he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he
know it, and shall not he render to every

01:06.220 --> 01:07.520
man according to his works?

01:08.580 --> 01:14.080
My son, eat thou honey, because it is
good, and the honeycomb, which is sweet to

01:14.080 --> 01:14.660
thy taste.

01:15.420 --> 01:18.240
So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto
thy soul.

01:18.600 --> 01:23.500
When thou hast found it, then there shall
be a reward, and thy expectation shall not

01:23.500 --> 01:24.140
be cut off.

01:24.940 --> 01:27.640
Lay not weight, O wicked man, against the
dwelling of the righteous.

01:28.340 --> 01:29.940
Spoil not his resting place.

01:30.540 --> 01:34.260
For a just man falleth seven times,
and riseth up again.

01:34.800 --> 01:36.740
But the wicked shall fall into mischief.

01:37.800 --> 01:42.120
Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth,
and let not thine heart be glad when he

01:42.120 --> 01:42.760
stumbleth.

01:43.220 --> 01:47.540
Lest the Lord see it, and it displease
him, and ye turn away his wrath from him.

01:48.640 --> 01:53.000
Fret not thyself because of evil men,
neither be thou envious at the wicked.

01:53.800 --> 01:56.220
For there shall be no reward to the evil
man.

01:56.540 --> 01:58.660
The candle of the wicked shall be put out.

01:59.500 --> 02:04.720
My son, fear thou the Lord and the king,
and meddle not with them that are given to

02:04.720 --> 02:05.260
change.

02:05.540 --> 02:10.240
For their calamity shall rise suddenly,
and who knoweth the ruin of them both?

02:11.100 --> 02:13.220
These things also belong to the wise.

02:13.580 --> 02:16.280
It is not good to have respect of persons
in judgment.

02:17.020 --> 02:21.020
He that sayeth unto the wicked,
Thou art righteous, him shall the people

02:21.020 --> 02:21.500
curse.

02:22.160 --> 02:23.700
Nations shall abhor him.

02:24.520 --> 02:28.340
But to them that rebuke him shall be
delight, and a good blessing shall come

02:28.340 --> 02:28.880
upon them.

02:29.740 --> 02:32.380
Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth
the right answer.

02:33.360 --> 02:38.020
Prepare thy work without, and make it fit
for thyself in the field, and afterwards

02:38.020 --> 02:39.040
build thine house.

02:39.040 --> 02:44.400
Be not a witness against thy neighbor
without cause, and deceive not with thy

02:44.400 --> 02:44.780
lips.

02:45.640 --> 02:49.920
Say not, I will do so to him as he hath
done to me, I will render to the man

02:49.920 --> 02:50.800
according to his work.

02:51.800 --> 02:55.360
I went by the field of the slothful,
and by the vineyard of the man void of

02:55.360 --> 03:00.360
understanding, and lo, it was all grown
over with thorns, and nettles had covered

03:00.360 --> 03:03.620
the face thereof, and the stone wall
thereof was broken down.

03:04.340 --> 03:06.520
Then I saw, and considered it well.

03:07.000 --> 03:09.280
I looked upon it, and received
instruction.

03:10.320 --> 03:14.660
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to sleep.

03:15.220 --> 03:20.600
So shall thy poverty come as one that
traveleth, and thy want as an armed man.
