17. For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
18. But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more unto the perfect day.

20. My son, attend to my words; incline your ear unto my sayings.
21. Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart.
22. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
23. Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
24. Put away from you a deceitful mouth, and perverse lips put far from you.
25. Let your eyes look directly forward, and let your eyelids look straight before you.
26. Ponder the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established.
