17 The highway of the upright(A) avoids evil;the one who guards his way protects his life.(B)
17 The path of the virtuous leads away from evil; whoever follows that path is safe.
5 There are thorns and snares on the path of the crooked;(A)the one who guards himself stays far from them.
5 Corrupt people walk a thorny, treacherous road; whoever values life will avoid it.
