In context
17 Do not rejoice when your enemy falls. Do not let your heart be glad when he is overthrown;
18 lest the Lord see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19 Do not fret yourself because of evildoers; neither be envious of the wicked:
20 for there will be no reward to the evil man; and the lamp of the wicked shall be snuffed out.
21 My son, fear the Lord and the king. Do not join those who are rebellious:
22 for their calamity will rise suddenly; the destruction from them both-who knows?
23 These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good.
