כִּֽי־תֹאמַר הֵן לֹא־יָדַעְנוּ זֶה הֲֽלֹא־תֹכֵן לִבּוֹת הֽוּא־יָבִין וְנֹצֵר נַפְשְׁךָ הוּא יֵדָע וְהֵשִׁיב לְאָדָם כְּפָעֳלֽוֹ
If thou sayest: ‘Behold, we knew not this’, Doth not He that weigheth the hearts consider it? And He that keepeth thy soul, doth not He know it? And shall not He render to every man according to his works?
אֱכָל־בְּנִי דְבַשׁ כִּי־טוֹב וְנֹפֶת מָתוֹק עַל־חִכֶּֽךָ
My son, eat thou honey, for it is good, And the honeycomb is sweet to thy taste;
כֵּן דְּעֶה חָכְמָה לְנַפְשֶׁךָ אִם־מָצָאתָ וְיֵשׁ אַחֲרִית וְתִקְוָתְךָ לֹא תִכָּרֵֽת
So know thou wisdom to be unto thy soul; If thou hast found it, then shall there be a future, And thy hope shall not be cut off.
אַל־תֶּאֱרֹב רָשָׁע לִנְוֵה צַדִּיק אַֽל־תְּשַׁדֵּד רִבְצוֹ
Lie not in wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous, Spoil not his resting-place;
כִּי שֶׁבַע יִפּוֹל צַדִּיק וָקָם וּרְשָׁעִים יִכָּשְׁלוּ בְרָעָֽה
For a righteous man falleth seven times, and riseth up again, But the wicked stumble under adversity.
