Proverbs 4:17-25
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 4
17
For they eat the bread of wickedness,
And drink the wine of violence.
18
But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn
That shines brighter and brighter until the full day.
19
The way of the wicked is like darkness;
They do not know over what they stumble.
20
My son, pay attention to my words;
Incline your ear to my sayings.
21
They are not to escape from your sight;
Keep them in the midst of your heart.
22
For they are life to those who find them,
And healing to all their body.
23
Watch over your heart with all diligence,
For from it
flow
the springs of life.
24
Rid yourself of a deceitful mouth
And keep devious speech far from you.
25
Let your eyes look directly ahead
And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you.
King James Version
Chapter 4
17
For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
18
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
19
The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
20
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21
Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22
For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
23
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
24
Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
25
Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 4
17
They eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence.
18
The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn,
shining brighter and brighter until midday.
19
But the way of the wicked is like the darkest gloom;
they don’t know what makes them stumble.
20
My son, pay attention to my words;
listen closely to my sayings.
21
Don’t lose sight of them;
keep them within your heart.
22
For they are life to those who find them,
and health to one’s whole body.
23
Guard your heart above all else,
for it is the source of life.
24
Don’t let your mouth speak dishonestly,
and don’t let your lips talk deviously.
25
Let your eyes look forward;
fix your gaze straight ahead.
New Living Translation
Chapter 4
17
They eat the food of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence!
18
The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
which shines ever brighter until the full light of day.
19
But the way of the wicked is like total darkness.
They have no idea what they are stumbling over.
20
My child, pay attention to what I say.
Listen carefully to my words.
21
Don’t lose sight of them.
Let them penetrate deep into your heart,
22
for they bring life to those who find them,
and healing to their whole body.
23
Guard your heart above all else,
for it determines the course of your life.
24
Avoid all perverse talk;
stay away from corrupt speech.
25
Look straight ahead,
and fix your eyes on what lies before you.
English Standard Version
