20. My son, give attention to my words;Incline your ear to my sayings. 21. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; 22. For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.
23. Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life.
24. Put away from you a deceitful mouth,
And put perverse lips far from you.
25. Let your eyes look straight ahead,
And your eyelids look right before you.
26. Ponder the path of your feet,
And let all your ways be established.
27. Do not turn to the right or the left;
Remove your foot from evil. Father, HELP us to HIDE Your Word in our hearts, so we might not sin against You. We desire to live up to the expectations you have of us as a noble son and daughter. In Jesus' Name. |
