18. But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light,growing brighter and brighter until full day.
19. The way of the wicked is like gloomy darkness;they do not know what causes them to stumble.
20. My child, pay attention to my words;listen attentively to my sayings.
21. Do not let them depart from your sight,guard them within your heart;
22. for they are life to those who find them and healing to one’s entire body.
23. Guard your heart with all vigilance,for from it are the sources of life.
24. Remove perverse speech from your mouth;keep devious talk far from your lips.
25. Let your eyes look directly in front of youand let your gaze look straight before you.
26. Make the path for your feet level, so that all your ways may be established.
27. Do not turn to the right or to the left;turn yourself away from evil.
