Proverbs 24:11-13

New International Reader's Version

¹¹ Save those who are being led away to death.
    Hold back those who are about to be killed.
¹² Don’t say, “But we didn’t know anything about this.”
    Doesn’t the God who knows what you are thinking see it?
Doesn’t the God who guards your life know it?
    He will pay back everyone for what they have done.

¹³ Eat honey, my son, because it is good.
    Honey from a honeycomb has a sweet taste.
