Proverbs 24:14


Proverbs 24:13 Proverbs 24:14 (KJV) Proverbs 24:15
My son, eat thou honey, because [it is] good; and the honeycomb, [which is] sweet to thy taste:
So [shall] the knowledge of wisdom [be] unto thy soul: when thou hast found [it], then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.
Lay not wait, O wicked [man], against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:
