My son, do not go along with them, and keep your feet away from their paths!

and from those who abandon the right path to travel along the ways of darkness;

I have directed you in the way of wisdom, and I have led you along straight paths.

Do not enter the path of the wicked, or go along the way of evil men.

They should be for you alone and not for strangers who are with you.

On top of the highest places along the road she stands where the roads meet.

Counsel belongs to me, along with sound judgment. I am understanding. Power belongs to me.

I walk on the way of righteousness, along paths that are just,

If you are wise, your wisdom will assist you. If you mock, you alone will be held responsible.

When an evil person comes, contempt also comes, along with dishonor and disgrace.

The reward of humility is the fear of the LORD, along with wealth, honor, and life.

Whoever misleads the upright along an evil way will himself fall into his own pit, but the blameless will inherit what is good.
