Proverbs 4:14-19

Living Bible

¹⁴ Don’t do as the wicked do. ¹⁵ Avoid their haunts—turn away, go somewhere else, ¹⁶ for evil men can’t sleep until they’ve done their evil deed for the day. They can’t rest unless they cause someone to stumble and fall. ¹⁷ They eat and drink wickedness and violence!

¹⁸ But the good man walks along in the ever-brightening light of God’s favor; the dawn gives way to morning splendor, ¹⁹ while the evil man gropes and stumbles in the dark.
