Hate Or Love Your Enemy?
Proverbs 24:17-18 (NIV)

17) Do not gloat when your enemy falls;
when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice,
18) or the Lord will see and disapprove
and turn his wrath away from them.

Proverbs Club Commentary

This proverb was retired when Jesus proclaimed:

“You have heard that it was said,
‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
But I tell you, love your enemies
and pray for those who persecute you,”
Matthew 5:43-44
