17 For they eat the bread of wickedness,
And drink the wine of violence.

18 ^aBut the path of the just ^bis like the shining sun,
That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. ‡

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;
