Proverbs 4:23-26
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 With all vigilance guard your heart,
for in it are the sources of life.
24 [a]Dishonest mouth put away from you,
deceitful lips put far from you.
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead
and your gaze be focused forward.
26 Survey the path for your feet,
and all your ways will be sure.
Proverbs 4:23-26
New International Version
23 Above all else, guard(A) your heart,
for everything you do flows from it.(B)
24 Keep your mouth free of perversity;
keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
25 Let your eyes(C) look straight ahead;
fix your gaze directly before you.
26 Give careful thought to the[a] paths for your feet(D)
and be steadfast in all your ways.
