4:27 Don't turn to the right hand nor to the left. Remove your foot from evil.
This verse means that people should avoid all evil and be honest. Instead of deceiving others people should be straight forward. Also, people shouldn't follow the wrong path (right/left). Although it seems more pleasing, it will turn people away from God.
Action Steps: I will try to follow the right path instead of swerving to either left or right. If I stay close to God and be honest, I won't have to sin.

But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.

I will try to make the right decisions every time instead of finding a easier way that leads me to sin.
