    [bbe]  If you give way in the day of trouble, your strength is small.
24:11 [hgb]  人 被 拉 到 死 地 ， 你 要 解 救 。 人 将 被 杀 ， 你 须 拦 阻 。

    [bbe]  Be the saviour of those who are given up to death, and do not keep back help from those who are slipping to destruction.
24:12 [hgb]  你 若 说 ， 这 事 我 未 曾 知 道 。 那 衡 量 人 心 的 ， 岂 不 明 白 吗 ？ 保 守 你 命 的 ， 岂 不 知 道 吗 ？ 他 岂 不 按 各 人 所 行 的 ， 报 应 各 人 吗 ？ 
    [kjv]  If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart 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?
    [bbe]  If you say, See, we had no knowledge of this: does not the tester of hearts give thought to it? and he who keeps your soul, has he no knowledge of it? and will he not give to every man the reward of his work?
24:13 [hgb]  我 儿 ， 你 要 吃 蜜 ， 因 为 是 好 的 。 吃 蜂 房 下 滴 的 蜜 ， 便 觉 甘 甜 。 
    [kjv]  My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:
    [bbe]  My son, take honey, for it is good; and the flowing honey, which is sweet to your taste:
