Proverbs 4:18-19
The Message
18-19 The ways of right-living people glow with light;
the longer they live, the brighter they shine.
But the road of wrongdoing gets darker and darker—
travelers can’t see a thing; they fall flat on their faces.
Proverbs 4:18-19
Amplified Bible
18
But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn,
That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day.(A)
19
The way of the wicked is like [deep] darkness;
They do not know over what they stumble.(B)
Proverbs 4:18-19
King James Version
18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
