Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not walk in the way of evildoers.
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,
My child, if sinners entice you, do not consent.
my child, do not walk in their way; keep your foot from their paths,
Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools suffers harm.
lest you learn their ways and entangle yourself in a snare.
Do not envy the wicked, nor desire to be with them,
Avoid it; do not go on it; turn away from it and pass on.
Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house,
passing along the street near her corner, taking the road to her house
Lay aside immaturity and live, and walk in the way of insight.”
Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”
