Proverbs 4:25

English Standard Version 2016

Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.

See the chapter Copy

Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.

“The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light,

“I have made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I gaze at a virgin?

Your eyes will see strange things, and your heart utter perverse things.

When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven.

Put away from you crooked speech, and put devious talk far from you.

Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure.

Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding walks straight ahead.

A wicked man puts on a bold face, but the upright gives thought to his ways.
