Proverbs 4:14-19
141Do not enter the path of the wicked And do not proceed in the way of evil men.15Avoid it, do not pass by it; Turn away from it and pass on.16For they 2cannot sleep unless they do evil; And 3they are robbed of sleep unless they make someone stumble.17For they 4eat the bread of wickedness And drink the wine of violence.18But the 5path of the righteous is like the 6light of dawn, That 7shines brighter and brighter until the 8full day.19The 9way of the wicked is like darkness; They do not know over what they 1011stumble.
