Marry not sinful wives, Idolatresses and the like, be not inward with bad men, live not in bad places.

Had he lived in Jacobs family, and taken a better wife he might perhaps have had a better son; let us not make our selves guilty of our children's naughtiness by choosing bad yoke-fellows, bad friends, bad places of habitation.
