My Honeycomb

13 

My child, eat honey, for it is good,
     and the honeycomb is sweet to the taste.

14 

In the same way, wisdom is sweet to your soul.
     If you find it, you will have a bright future,
     and your hopes will not be cut short.

15 

Don’t wait in ambush at the home of the godly,
     and don’t raid the house where the godly live.

16 

The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again.
     But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.

Verses 13 and 14 talk about the reward of gaining wisdom. We know that wisdom begins with a respect for God, and we’re told that gaining wisdom is as sweet to the soul as honey is to the tongue. The reward of wisdom isn’t fame, wealth, or power—it’s that you don’t lose hope. In a chaotic world, without wisdom, it’s easy to lose hope, even if you have success.

Verses 15 and 16 remind us that moral actions matter. Proverbs doesn’t say that good people will never face problems, but it does promise that righteous people can survive hardships that would ruin the wicked.

Think about this: The Bible tells us to be ready to share the hope we have. Do you still have hope, or have you lost it?
