  • Prov 4:10-23 : 10 Heare, my sonne, & receiue my wordes, and the yeeres of thy life shalbe many. 11 I haue taught thee in ye way of wisedom, and led thee in the pathes of righteousnesse. 12 Whe thou goest, thy gate shal not be strait, and when thou runnest, thou shalt not fall. 13 Take holde of instruction, and leaue not: keepe her, for shee is thy life. 14 Enter not into the way of the wicked, and walke not in the way of euill men. 15 Auoide it, and goe not by it: turne from it, and passe by. 16 For they can not sleepe, except they haue done euill, and their sleepe departeth except they cause some to fall. 17 For they eate the breade of wickednesse, and drinke the wine of violence. 18 But the way of the righteous shineth as the light, that shineth more and more vnto the perfite day. 19 The way of the wicked is as the darkenes: they knowe not wherein they shall fall. 20 My sonne, hearken vnto my wordes, incline thine eare vnto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes, but keepe them in the middes of thine heart. 22 For they are life vnto those that find them, and health vnto all their flesh. 23 Keepe thine heart with all diligence: for thereout commeth life.
