Proverbs 6 Verses
1
|
My son, don't put up money for what your neighbor owes. Don't agree to pay up for someone else. |
2
|
Don't be trapped by what you have said. Don't be caught by the words of your mouth. |
3
|
Instead, my son, do something to free yourself. Don't fall into your neighbor's hands. Don't be proud. Hurry and make your appeal to your neighbor. |
4
|
Don't let your eyes go to sleep. Don't let your eyelids close. |
5
|
As a deer frees itself from a hunter, free yourself. As a bird frees itself from a trapper, free yourself. |
6
|
You people who don't want to work, think about the ant! Consider its ways and be wise! |
7
|
It has no commander. It has no leader or ruler. |
8
|
But it stores up its food in summer. It gathers its food at harvest time. |
9
|
You lazy people, how long will you lie there? When will you get up from your sleep? |
10
|
You might sleep a little or take a little nap. You might even fold your hands and rest. |
11
|
Then you would be poor, as if someone had robbed you. You would have little, as if someone had stolen from you. |
12
|
A worthless and evil man goes around saying twisted things with his mouth. |
13
|
He winks with his eyes. He makes signals with his feet. He motions with his fingers. |
14
|
His plans are evil. He has lies in his heart. He is always stirring up fights. |
15
|
Trouble will catch up with him in an instant. He will suddenly be destroyed. Nothing can save him. |
16
|
There are six things the Lord hates. In fact, he hates seven things. |
17
|
The Lord hates proud eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that kill those who aren't guilty. |
18
|
He also hates hearts that make evil plans, feet that are quick to do evil, |
19
|
any witness who pours out lies, and anyone who stirs up family fights. |
20
|
My son, keep your father's commands. Don't turn away from your mother's teaching. |
21
|
Tie them to your heart forever. Put them around your neck. |
22
|
When you walk, they will guide you. When you sleep, they will watch over you. When you wake up, they will speak to you. |
23
|
Your father's commands are like a lamp. Your mother's teaching is like a light. And the training that corrects you leads to life. |
24
|
It keeps you from a sinful woman. It keeps you from the smooth tongue of a woman who commits adultery. |
25
|
Don't hunger in your heart after her beauty. Don't let her eyes capture you. |
26
|
A prostitute leaves you with only a loaf of bread. Another man's wife hunts your very life. |
27
|
You can't shovel fire into your lap without burning your clothes. |
28
|
You can't walk on hot coals without burning your feet. |
29
|
It's the same for anyone who has sex with another man's wife. Anyone who touches her will be punished. |
30
|
People don't hate a thief who steals to fill his empty stomach. |
31
|
But when he is caught, he must pay seven times as much as he stole. It may even cost him everything he has. |
32
|
A man who commits adultery has no sense. Anyone who does it destroys himself. |
33
|
He will be beaten up and dishonored. His shame will never be wiped away. |
34
|
Jealousy stirs up a husband's anger. He will show no mercy when he gets even. |
35
|
He won't accept any payment. He won't take any money, no matter how much he is offered. |
