Do not envy the wicked, nor desire to be with them,
Be not thou envious against evil men, Neither desire to be with them.
BE NOT envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them;
Be not thou envious against evil men; Neither desire to be with them:
Don’t envy evil people, and don’t long to be with them.
Do not imitate evil men, nor desire to be among them.
Seek not to be like evil men, neither desire to be with them:
Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked or take the path that sinners tread or sit in the seat of scoffers,
Do not sweep me away with sinners nor my life with the bloodthirsty,
Do not fret because of the wicked; do not be envious of wrongdoers,
Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him; do not fret over those who prosper in their way, over those who carry out evil devices.
For I was envious of the arrogant; I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools suffers harm.
Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always continue in the fear of the Lord.
Do not fret because of evildoers. Do not envy the wicked,
Do not envy the violent, and do not choose any of their ways,
Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not walk in the way of evildoers.
Avoid it; do not go on it; turn away from it and pass on.
