Scripture

“For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.”

The story
Why this verse
The Jazz Sessions version of You Have the Right to Try Again revisits Proverbs 24:16 with a lighter step. The promise is still sturdy — the righteous fall and rise again — but the arrangement makes room to play, to breathe, to hear the mercy once more. It is a companion to the earlier track: the same truth, a different posture. Failure does not get the last word. Neither does shame. The invitation is still to get up, and to do it with your head up.
