16 Porque siete veces cae el justo, y se torna á levantar; mas los impíos caerán en el mal.

17 Cuando cayere tu enemigo, no te huelgues; y cuando tropezare, no se alegre tu corazón:

18 Porque Jehová no lo mire, y le desagrade, y aparte de sobre él su enojo.

19 No te entrometas con los malignos, ni tengas envidia de los impíos;

20 Porque para el malo no habrá [buen] fin, y la candela de los impíos será apagada.
