Proverbs 4:14–15

The Weight of Parental Counsel.

WARNING AGAINST WICKEDNESS. — V. 14. Enter not into the path of the wicked, to join them in their godless conduct, and go not in the way of evil men, such behavior being incompatible with true wisdom. V. 15. Avoid it, pass not by it, not only by ignoring, but by utterly rejecting the way of evil, turn from it and pass away, if one should inadvertently have strayed into such paths.
