The highway of the upright turns away from evil; whoever guards his way keeps his life.
In context
15In the light of a king’s face there is life, and his favor is like a cloud of spring rain. 16To get wisdom—how much better than gold! And to get understanding is chosen above silver. 17The highway of the upright turns away from evil; whoever guards his way keeps his life. 18Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. 19Better to be lowly in spirit with the humble than to divide spoil with the proud.
