^17 (A)Do not let your heart envy sinners,
But live in ^[a]the ^(B)fear of the Lord ^[b]always.
¹⁸ Certainly there is a ^[c](C)future,
And your ^(D)hope will not be cut off.
¹⁹ Listen, my son, and ^(E)be wise,
And ^(F)direct your heart in the way.
²⁰ Do not be with ^(G)heavy drinkers of wine,
Or with ^(H)gluttonous eaters of meat;
²¹ For the ^(I)heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty,
And ^(J)drowsiness will clothe one with rags.
