Proverbs Chapter 4 10-19

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings,
and the years of your life will be many.
I have taught you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in right paths.
when you go, your steps will not be hampered;
and when you run, you shall not stumble.
Take fast hold of instruction;
do not let her go;
keep her; for she is your life.
Enter not into the path of the wicked,
and go not in the way of wicked men.
Avoid it, do not pass by it,
turn from it, and pass away.
For they  cannot sleep until they do evil,
and their sleep is taken away,
unless they cause someone to fall.
For they eat the bread of wickedness,
and drink the wine of violence.
But the path of the just is like the first gleam of dawn,
shining ever brighter till the full light of day.
But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness;
they do not know what makes them stumble.
