Proverbs 24:10-12

New Century Version

¹⁰ If you give up when trouble comes,
    it shows that you are weak.

¹¹ Save those who are being led to their death;
    rescue those who are about to be killed.
¹² If you say, “We don’t know anything about this,”
    God, who knows what’s in your mind, will notice.
He is watching you, and he will know.
    He will reward each person for what he has done.
