PRO 6-1 | My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, |
PRO 6-2 | Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. |
PRO 6-3 | Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend. |
PRO 6-4 | Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids. |
PRO 6-5 | Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler. |
PRO 6-6 | Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: |
PRO 6-7 | Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, |
PRO 6-8 | Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. |
PRO 6-9 | How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? |
PRO 6-10 | Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: |
PRO 6-11 | So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. |
PRO 6-12 | A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. |
PRO 6-13 | He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; |
PRO 6-14 | Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. |
PRO 6-15 | Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. |
PRO 6-16 | These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: |
PRO 6-17 | A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, |
PRO 6-18 | An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, |
PRO 6-19 | A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. |
PRO 6-20 | My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: |
PRO 6-21 | Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. |
PRO 6-22 | When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. |
PRO 6-23 | For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: |
PRO 6-24 | To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. |
PRO 6-25 | Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. |
PRO 6-26 | For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adultress will hunt for the precious life. |
PRO 6-27 | Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? |
PRO 6-28 | Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? |
PRO 6-29 | So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. |
PRO 6-30 | Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; |
PRO 6-31 | But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. |
PRO 6-32 | But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. |
PRO 6-33 | A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. |
PRO 6-34 | For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. |
PRO 6-35 | He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts. |
