Proverbs 4:25

A Conservative Version

Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

See the chapter Copy

Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity, and enliven me in thy ways.

The light of the body is the eye. If therefore thine eye is sound, thy whole body will be bright.

I made a covenant with my eyes. How then should I look upon a virgin?

Thine eyes shall behold strange things, and thy heart shall utter perverse things.

Will thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For it certainly makes itself wings, like an eagle that flies toward heaven.

Put away from thee a wayward mouth, and put perverse lips far from thee.

Make the path of thy feet level, and let all thy ways be established.

Folly is joy to him who is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding makes his going straight.

A wicked man hardens his face, but as for an upright man, he establishes his ways.
