Proverbs 23:17-21
Lexham English Bible
17 May your heart[a] not envy the sinners,
but live in fear of Yahweh all day.[b]
18 Surely[c] there is a future,
and your hope will not be cut off.
19 You, my child, hear and be wise,
and direct your heart[d] on the road.
20 Do not be among drinkers of wine,
among gluttonous eaters of their meat.[e]
21 For the drunkard and gluttonous, they will become poor,
and with rags, drowsiness will clothe them.
