Proverbes 4:25 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 4:25

Let thine eyes look right on
To the path of truth and holiness, without turning or looking to the right hand or left, as it is afterwards expressed; to the word of truth, as the rule to walk by; to Christ, the author and finisher of faith, from whom all grace, and the supplies of it, are to be had; and to the mark, for the prize of the high calling of God; and thine eyelids look straight before thee;
to the precepts of the word, to observe them; to the promises of it for encouragement; to the examples of the saints gone before, as motives to excite diligence, and to exercise patience, faith, and hope; to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life, and to the blessed hope laid up in heaven.

Proverbes 4:25 In-Context

23 Garde ton cœur plus que toute autre chose qu'on garde; car c'est de lui que procèdent les sources de la vie.
24 Éloigne de toi la perversité de la bouche, et la fausseté des lèvres.
25 Que tes yeux regardent droit, et que tes paupières se dirigent devant toi.
26 Balance le chemin de tes pieds, afin que toutes tes voies soient affermies.
27 Ne te détourne ni à droite ni à gauche; retire ton pied du mal.
