Proverbs 4:10-17

Leeser(i) 10 Hear, O my son, and accept my sayings: and they will increase unto thee the years of life. 11 In the way of wisdom have I instructed thee: I have led thee in the tracks of uprightness. 12 When thou walkest, thy step shall not be narrowed; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble. 13 Lay fast hold of correction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life. 14 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and step not on the way of the bad. 15 Avoid it, pass not through by it, turn off from it, and pass away. 16 For they sleep not, except they have done evil, and their sleep is robbed away, unless they cause some to stumble. 17 For they eat the bread of wickedness; and the wine of violence do they drink.
