17 ^aDo not let your heart envy sinners,
But ^bbe zealous for the fear of the Lord all the day; ‡

18 ^aFor surely there is a¹ hereafter,
And your hope will not be cut off. ‡

20 ^aDo not mix with winebibbers,
Or with gluttonous eaters of meat; ‡

21 For the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty,
And drowsiness will clothe a man with rags.
