-
My son, do not walk in the way with them, Keep your foot from their path;
-
He guards the paths of justice, And preserves the way of His saints.
-
To deliver you from the way of evil, From the man who speaks perverse things,
-
So you may walk in the way of goodness, And keep to the paths of righteousness.
-
I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths.
-
Do not enter the path of the wicked, And do not walk in the way of evil.
-
The way of the wicked is like darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble.
-
For the commandment is a lamp, And the law a light; Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
-
Her house is the way to hell, Descending to the chambers of death.
-
She takes her stand on the top of the high hill, Beside the way, where the paths meet.
-
I traverse the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice,
-
The Way of Wisdom
Wisdom has built her house, She has hewn out her seven pillars;
-
Forsake foolishness and live, And go in the way of understanding.
-
The Way of Folly
A foolish woman is clamorous; She is simple, and knows nothing.
-
He who keeps instruction is in the way of life, But he who refuses correction goes astray.
-
The way of the Lord is strength for the upright, But destruction will come to the workers of iniquity.
-
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But he who heeds counsel is wise.
-
The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray.
-
In the way of righteousness is life, And in its pathway there is no death.
-
Good understanding gains favor, But the way of the unfaithful is hard.
-
There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
-
The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But He loves him who follows righteousness.
-
Harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way, And he who hates correction will die.
-
The way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns, But the way of the upright is a highway.
-
The way of life winds upward for the wise, That he may turn away from hell below.
