There are a couple of clear references to this chapter in New Testament teaching (have a look at v6-7 and v21-22).
Keep the faith, by not giving the wicked a foothold.
V 26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well are the righteous who give way to the wicked.
I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.
These are the summaries of the book of Proverbs.
They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
