Proverbs 23:15-18

Saying 14 15My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad indeed;

16my inmost being will rejoice when your lips speak what is right.

Saying 15 17Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always be zealous for the fear of the LORD .

18There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.
