Proverbs 4:20-27

20My son, pay attention to my words— incline your ear to my sayings.

21Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart.

22For they are life to those who find them and health to their whole body.

23Guard your heart diligently, for from it flow the springs of life.

24Put away perversity from your mouth, and keep devious lips far from you.

25Let your eyes look directly ahead, and fix your gaze straight in front of you.

26Clear a level path for your feet, so all your ways will be firm.

27Do not turn to the right or to the left. Divert your foot from evil.
