Proverbs 24:9-11

Young's Literal Translation

⁹ The thought of folly [is] sin, And an abomination to man [is] a scorner.

¹⁰ Thou hast shewed thyself weak in a day of adversity, Straitened is thy power,

¹¹ If [from] delivering those taken to death, And those slipping to the slaughter -- thou keepest back.
