Proverbs 4:10-15

10My child, listen to me and do as I say, and you will have a long, good life.

11I will teach you wisdom’s ways and lead you in straight paths.

12When you walk, you won’t be held back; when you run, you won’t stumble.

13Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life.

14Don’t do as the wicked do, and don’t follow the path of evildoers.

15Don’t even think about it; don’t go that way. Turn away and keep moving.
