Temptation to Be Avoided
Scripture
KJV
Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.
ESV
Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not walk in the way of the evil. Avoid it; do not go on it; turn away from it and pass on.
Proverbs 4:14-15
Poem
A wicked world and wicked heart
With Satan are combined:
Each acts a too successful part,
In harassing my mind.
But fighting in my Saviour's strength,
Though mighty are my foes,
I shall a conqueror be at length
O'er all that can oppose.
