Keep company with the wise and you will become wise. If you make friends with stupid people, you will be ruined.

He said to the people, "Get away from the tents of these wicked men and don't touch anything that belongs to them. Otherwise, you will be wiped out with them for all their sins."

Happy are those who reject the advice of evil people, who do not follow the example of sinners or join those who have no use for God.

I do not keep company with worthless people; I have nothing to do with hypocrites.

I hate the company of the evil and avoid the wicked.

Go away from me, you sinful people. I will obey the commands of my God.

And so the Lord says, "You must leave them and separate yourselves from them. Have nothing to do with what is unclean, and I will accept you.

Have nothing to do with the worthless things that people do, things that belong to the darkness. Instead, bring them out to the light.

People will be selfish, greedy, boastful, and conceited; they will be insulting, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and irreligious;

they will be treacherous, reckless, and swollen with pride; they will love pleasure rather than God;

Then I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out, my people! Come out from her! You must not take part in her sins; you must not share in her punishment!

Don't be envious of evil people, and don't try to make friends with them.

Don't be envious of sinful people; let reverence for the LORD be the concern of your life.

Don't be worried on account of the wicked; don't be jealous of those who do wrong.

because I was jealous of the proud when I saw that things go well for the wicked.
