16 For they can’t sleepunless they have done what is evil;they are robbed of sleepunless they make someone stumble.
17 They eat the bread of wickednessand drink the wine of violence.
18 The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, shining brighter and brighter until midday.
19 But the way of the wicked is like the darkest gloom; they don’t know what makes them stumble.
20 My son, pay attention to my words;listen closely to my sayings.
21 Don’t lose sight of them; keep them within your heart.
22 For they are life to those who find them,and health to one’s whole body.
