20 My sonne marke my wordes, and encline thyne eare vnto my sayinges: 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes, but kepe them euen in the middest of thyne heart: 22 For they are life vnto those that finde them, and health vnto all their bodyes. 23 Kepe thyne heart with all diligence, for out of it issueth lyfe. 24 Put away from thee a frowarde mouth, and let the lippes of slaunder be farre from thee. 25 Let thyne eyes beholde that thyng that is right, and let thyne eye liddes loke straight before thee. 26 Ponder the path of thy feete, and let all thy wayes be ordred aright. 27 Turne not aside, neither to the right hande nor to the left: but wihholde thy foote from euyll.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ponder the path of thy feet,.... Consider well what path it is, whether right or wrong; or weigh it in the balances of thought, as Aben Ezra; or rather in the balances of the word, and see whether it agrees with that or not. The Septuagint version is, "make straight paths for thy feet"; to which the author of the epistle to the Hebrews seems to have respect, Hebrews 12:13;

and let all thy walls be established; so as to walk on steadily, constantly, uniformly, and not be easily moved out of the ways of religion and truth. Or, "let all thy ways be prepared", or "directed", or "disposed" c; according to the rule of the divine word. Some render it as a promise, "and all thy ways shall be established" d; when care is taken to look well into them; see 2 Chronicles 20:20.

c יכנו "dirigantur", Tigurine version, Mercerus; "recte apparentur aut disponantur", Vatablus. d "Stabilientur", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus; "constabilientur", Schultens.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Speech turned from its true purpose, the wandering eye that leads on to evil, action hasty and inconsiderate, are the natural results where we do not “above all keeping keep our heart” Proverbs 4:23.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 4:26. Ponder the path of thy feetWeigh well the part thou shouldst act in life. See that thou contract no bad habits.
