⁶ Leave off, ye simple ones, and live; And walk in the way of understanding.

²⁰ Walk with wise men, and thou shalt be wise; But the companion of fools shall smart for it.

³⁵ For whoso findeth me findeth life, And shall obtain favor of Jehovah.

¹⁴ Enter not into the path of the wicked, And walk not in the way of evil men.

¹⁵ Avoid it, pass not by it; Turn from it, and pass on.

¹¹ I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in paths of uprightness.

⁴ And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues:

⁵ I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.

⁶ I will wash my hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O Jehovah;
