Proverbs 24:13-16
The Message
26
13-14 Eat honey, dear child—it’s good for you—
and delicacies that melt in your mouth.
Likewise knowledge,
and wisdom for your soul—
Get that and your future’s secured,
your hope is on solid rock.
27
15-16 Don’t interfere with good people’s lives;
don’t try to get the best of them.
No matter how many times you trip them up,
God-loyal people don’t stay down long;
Soon they’re up on their feet,
while the wicked end up flat on their faces.

If you find it, there is a future hope for you,
and your hope will not be cut off.(A)
Saying 27
15 Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous,
do not plunder their dwelling place;
