19The way of sinners is dark; they see not the cause of their fall.
20My son, give attention to my words; let your ear be turned to my sayings.
21Let them not go from your eyes; keep them deep in your heart.
22For they are life to him who gets them, and strength to all his flesh.
23And keep watch over your heart with all care; so you will have life.
24Put away from you an evil tongue, and let false lips be far from you.
