American Standard Version
"Fret not thyself because of evil-doers; Neither be thou envious at the wicked: "
— Proverbs 24:19, American Standard Version
“Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;”
“Don't fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:”
“Do not fret because of evil people or be envious of wicked people,”
“Contend not with the wicked, nor seek to be like the ungodly.”
“Do not be troubled because of evil-doers, or have envy of sinners:”
“Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;”
For a righteous man falleth seven times, and riseth up again; But the wicked are overthrown by calamity.
Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, And let not thy heart be glad when he is overthrown;
Lest Jehovah see it, and it displease him, And he turn away his wrath from him.
Fret not thyself because of evil-doers; Neither be thou envious at the wicked:
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; The lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
My son, fear thou Jehovah and the king; And company not with them that are given to change:
For their calamity shall rise suddenly; And the destruction from them both, who knoweth it?
