16 
For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again,
But the wicked stumble in time of disaster and collapse.(A)

17 
Do not rejoice and gloat when your enemy falls,
And do not let your heart be glad [in self-righteousness] when he stumbles,
18 
Or the Lord will see your gloating and be displeased,
And turn His anger away from your enemy.
