Proverbs 24:20-24

For there will be no future for the evil person; The lamp of the wicked will be put out.

My son, fear the Lord and the king; Do not get involved with those of high rank,

For their disaster will rise suddenly, And who knows the ruin that can come from both of them?

These also are sayings of the wise: To show partiality in judgment is not good.

One who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,” Peoples will curse him, nations will scold him;
