In context
17 Let not thy heart be envious of sinners, only of the reverence of Yahweh, all day long;
18 For surely there is a future, and, thine expectation, shall not be cut off.
19 Hear, thou, my son, and be wise, and lead forward, in duty, thy heart.
20 Do not be among them who tipple with wine,—among them who are gluttons;
21 For, the tippler and the glutton, shall come to poverty, and, rags, shall Slumber put on!
22 Hearken to thy father here, who begat thee, and despise not, when she is old, thy mother.
23 Truth, buy thou, but do not sell, wisdom, and correction, and understanding.
