12When thou goest, thy steps shall not be confined; And, when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go; Keep her, for she is thy life.
14Enter not into the path of the wicked, And go not in the way of evil men;
15Avoid it, pass not upon it, Turn from it, and go away.
16For they sleep not, unless they have done mischief; Yea, their sleep is taken away, unless they have caused some to fall.
17For they eat the bread of wickedness, And drink the wine of violence.
18But the path of the righteous is as the light of dawn, Which groweth brighter and brighter unto the perfect day.
19The way of the wicked is as thick darkness; They know not at what they stumble.
20My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear to my sayings;
21Let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep them in the midst of thy heart!
22For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.
23More than any thing which thou watchest, watch thy heart; For from it goeth forth life.
24Put away from thee a deceitful mouth, And remove far from thee perverse lips.
