Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
15 My son, if your heart is wise, Then my heart will be glad, even mine:
16 Yes, my heart will rejoice, When your lips speak what is right.
17 Don`t let your heart envy sinners; But rather fear Yahweh all the day long.
18 Indeed surely there is a future hope, And your hope will not be cut off.
19 Listen, my son, and be wise, And keep your heart on the right path!
20 Don`t be among ones drinking too much wine, Or those who gorge themselves on meat:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall become poor; And drowsiness clothes them in rags.
