I have not sat with lying men, neither will I go in with hypocrites.
If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot has hurried to deceit,
Blessed is the man who has not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, and has not stood in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the seat of the scornful.
A perverse heart will depart from me; I will not know the wicked.
Depart from me, you evil-doers, for I will keep the Commandments of my God.
I am a companion of all who fear You, and of those who keep Your Commandments.
He who tills his land shall be satisfied with bread; but he who follows vanities lacks heart.
He who walks with the wise shall be wise, but a companion with fools shall be destroyed.
Forsake the foolish and live; and go in the way of understanding.
I did not sit in the circle of mockers, nor rejoice; I sat alone because of Your hand; for You have filled me with indignation.
Do not be deceived; evil companionships corrupt good habits.
Therefore come out from among them and be separated, says the Lord, and do not touch the unclean thing. And I will receive you
