23Above every charge keep thy heart, For out of it are the outgoings of life.


In Context

20 My son, to my words give attention, To my sayings incline thine ear,

21 Let them not turn aside from thine eyes, Preserve them in the midst of thy heart.

22 For life they are to those finding them, And to all their flesh healing.

23 Above every charge keep thy heart, For out of it are the outgoings of life.

24 Turn aside from thee a froward mouth, And perverse lips put far from thee,

25 Thine eyes do look straightforward, And thine eyelids look straight before thee.
