PROVERBS 24:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:”
Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous, do not plunder his dwelling—an exhortation to refrain from preying on the righteous person, establishing that the righteous are deserving of protection from exploitation. The image of lurking like a thief emphasizes predatory intention. The theological significance involves the principle of respect for those living righteously.
