Proverbs 4:19-27

¹⁹The way of the wicked is darksome: they know not where they fall.

²⁰My son, hearken to my words, and incline thy ear to my sayings.

²¹Let them not depart from thy eyes, keep them in the midst of thy heart:

²²For they are life to those that find them, and health to all flesh.

²³With all watchfulness keep thy heart, because life issueth out from it.

²⁴Remove from thee a froward mouth, and let detracting lips be far from thee.

²⁵Let thy eyes look straight on, and let thy eyelids go before thy steps.

²⁶Make straight the path for thy feet, and all thy ways shall be established.

²⁷Decline not to the right hand, nor to the left: turn away thy foot from evil. For the Lord knoweth the ways that are on the right hand: but those are perverse which are on the left hand. But he will make thy courses straight, he will bring forward thy ways in peace.
