Proverbs 24:17
Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
In context
15Don’t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous. Don’t destroy his resting place:
16for a righteous man falls seven times, and rises up again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
17Don’t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don’t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
18lest Yahweh see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19Don’t fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
