"My son, eat honey, because it is good, and the honeycomb, because it is so sweet to your throat. "
— Proverbs 24:13, Catholic Public Domain Version
“My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:”
“My son, eat thou honey, for it is good; And the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to thy taste: ”
“My son, eat honey, for it is good; the droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste:”
“Eat honey, my child, for it is good, and honey from the honeycomb is sweet to your taste.”
“Eat honey, my son, because it is good, and the honeycomb most sweet to thy throat.”
“My son, take honey, for it is good; and the flowing honey, which is sweet to your taste:”
“My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:”
If you despair, being weary in the day of anguish, your strength will be diminished.
Rescue those who are led away to death. And do not cease from delivering those who are dragged away to a violent death.
If you would say: “I do not have sufficient strength.” He who inspects the heart, the same one understands, and nothing slips past the one who preserves your soul. And he shall repay a man according to his works.
My son, eat honey, because it is good, and the honeycomb, because it is so sweet to your throat.
So, too, is the doctrine of wisdom to your soul. When you have found it, you will have hope in the end, and your hope shall not perish.
Do not lie in wait, and do not seek impiety in the house of the just, nor spoil his rest.
For the just one will fall seven times, and he shall rise again. But the impious will fall into evil.
