Exegesis
The temporal modifier kol-hayyôm {כָּל־הַיּוֹם | kol-hayyôm} ‘all the day’ indicates continuous practice. English rendering mirrors the Hebrew contrast by first negating one orientation and then prescribing a singular, sustained posture.
In context — Proverbs 23:17
Do not let your heart envy sinners , but remain in the fear of the LORD all day long.
