Episode Synopsis

10 When wisdom enters your heart,And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,11 Discretion will preserve you;Understanding will keep you,12 To deliver you from the way of evil,From the man who speaks perverse things,13 From those who leave the paths of uprightnessTo walk in the ways of darkness;14 Who rejoice in doing evil,And delight in the perversity of the wicked;15 Whose ways are crooked,And who are devious in their pathsProverbs 2:10-1513 From those who leave the paths of uprightnessTo walk in the ways of darkness;14 Who rejoice in doing evil,And delight in the perversity of the wicked;15 Whose ways are crooked,And who are devious in their paths;16 To deliver you from the immoral woman,From the seductress who flatters with her words,17 Who forsakes the companion of her youth,And forgets the covenant of her God.18 For her house leads down to death,And her paths to the dead;19 None who go to her return,Nor do they regain the paths of life—20 So you may walk in the way of goodness,And keep to the paths of righteousness.21 For the upright will dwell in the land,And the blameless will remain in it;22 But the wicked will be cut off from the [d]earth,And the unfaithful will be uprooted from it.Proverbs 2:13-2214 Do not enter the path of the wicked,And do not walk in the way of evil.15 Avoid it, do not travel on it;Turn away from it and pass on.16 For they do not sleep unless they have done evil;And their sleep is taken away unless they make someone fall.17 For they eat the bread of wickedness,And drink the wine of violence.Proverbs 4:14-1717 Better is a dry morsel with quietness,Than a house full of feasting with strife.Proverbs 17:1
