Proverbs 4:14-19

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁴ Don’t follow the path of the wicked
or walk on the way of evildoers.
¹⁵ Avoid it, don’t go on it,
turn away from it, and pass on.
¹⁶ For they can’t sleep if they haven’t done evil,
they are robbed of sleep unless they make someone fall.
¹⁷ For they eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence.
¹⁸ But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn,
shining ever brighter until full daylight.
¹⁹ The way of the wicked is like darkness;
they don’t even know what makes them stumble.
