Proverbs 4:18-27

18The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.

19But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble.

20My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words.

21Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart;

22for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body.

23Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

24Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips.

25Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you.

26Give careful thought to the Or Make level paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. 27Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.
