Proverbs 24:13-14

13 son, eat honey, for the honeycomb is good, that thy throat may be sweetened.

14 Thus shalt thou perceive wisdom in thy soul: for if thou find it, thine end shall be good, and hope shall not fail thee.

Proverbs 24:16

16 For a righteous man will fall seven times, and rise : but the ungodly shall be without strength in troubles.

Proverbs 24:20-22

20 For the evil man shall have no posterity: and the light of the wicked shall be put out.

21 son, fear God and the king; and do not disobey either of them.

22 For they will suddenly punish the ungodly, and who can know the vengeance by both? [A son that keeps the commandment shall escape destruction; for has fully received it. Let no falsehood be spoken by the king from the tongue; yea, let no falsehood proceed from his tongue. The king's tongue is a sword, and not one of flesh; and whosoever shall be given up to shall be destroyed: for if his wrath should be provoked, he destroys men with cords, and devours men's bones, and burns them up as a flame, so that they are not fit to be eaten by the young eagles. son, reverence my words, and receive them, and repent.]
