Proverbs 4:14-19

Lexham English Bible

¹⁴ In the path of the wicked do not go;
    do not walk in the way of those who do evil.
¹⁵ Avoid it; do not transgress it;
    turn away from it and pass by.
¹⁶ For they will not sleep if they have not done wrong,
    and they are robbed of their sleep if they do not cause stumbling.
¹⁷ For they ate the bread of wickedness,
    and they drank the wine of violence.
¹⁸ But the path of the righteous ones is like the light of dawn,
    leading and shining until the day is full.^[a]
19 The way of the wicked ones is like deep darkness;
    they do not know what they stumble over.
