Proverbs 4:27

25 Let your eyes look forward; fix your gaze straight ahead.

26 Make a level path for your feet, and all your ways will be sure.

Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your feet away from evil.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
