Proverbs 4:11-16

¹¹In the way of wisdom have I instructed thee: I have led thee in the tracks of uprightness.

¹²When thou walkest, thy step shall not be narrowed; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.

¹³Lay fast hold of correction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.

¹⁴Enter not into the path of the wicked, and step not on the way of the bad.

¹⁵Avoid it, pass not through by it, turn off from it, and pass away.

¹⁶For they sleep not, except they have done evil, and their sleep is robbed away, unless they cause some to stumble.
