Proverbs 23:17
Don’t let your heart envy sinners; but rather fear Yahweh all the day long.
In context
15My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad, even mine:
16yes, my heart will rejoice, when your lips speak what is right.
17Don’t let your heart envy sinners; but rather fear Yahweh all the day long.
18Indeed surely there is a future hope, and your hope will not be cut off.
19Listen, my son, and be wise, and keep your heart on the right path!
