Proverbs 23:17-23
New Living Translation
17 Don’t envy sinners,
but always continue to fear the Lord.
18 You will be rewarded for this;
your hope will not be disappointed.
19 My child, listen and be wise:
Keep your heart on the right course.
20 Do not carouse with drunkards
or feast with gluttons,
21 for they are on their way to poverty,
and too much sleep clothes them in rags.
22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and don’t despise your mother when she is old.
23 Get the truth and never sell it;
also get wisdom, discipline, and good judgment.
Proverbs 23:17-23
English Standard Version
17 Let not your heart (A)envy sinners,
but continue in (B)the fear of the Lord all the day.
18 Surely (C)there is a future,
and your (D)hope will not be cut off.
19 Hear, my son, and (E)be wise,
and (F)direct your heart in the way.
20 Be not among (G)drunkards[a]
or among (H)gluttonous eaters of meat,
21 for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty,
and (I)slumber will clothe them with rags.
22 (J)Listen to your father who gave you life,
(K)and do not despise your mother when she is old.
23 (L)Buy truth, and do not sell it;
buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.
