22 When you walk here and there, they will guide you;
when you lie down, they will watch over you;
when you wake up, they will talk to you.
23 For a command is a lamp, teaching is a light,(A)
and corrective discipline is the way to life.(B)
24 They will protect you from an evil woman,[a]
from the flattering[b] tongue of a stranger.(C)
