Proverbs 6 Verses
1
|
My child, if you have given your pledge to your neighbor, if you have bound yourself to another, |
2
|
you are snared by the utterance of your lips, caught by the words of your mouth. |
3
|
So do this, my child, and save yourself, for you have come into your neighbor's power: go, hurry, and plead with your neighbor. |
4
|
Give your eyes no sleep and your eyelids no slumber; |
5
|
save yourself like a gazelle from the hunter, like a bird from the hand of the fowler. |
6
|
Go to the ant, you lazybones; consider its ways, and be wise. |
7
|
Without having any chief or officer or ruler, |
8
|
it prepares its food in summer, and gathers its sustenance in harvest. |
9
|
How long will you lie there, O lazybones? When will you rise from your sleep? |
10
|
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, |
11
|
and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want, like an armed warrior. |
12
|
A scoundrel and a villain goes around with crooked speech, |
13
|
winking the eyes, shuffling the feet, pointing the fingers, |
14
|
with perverted mind devising evil, continually sowing discord; |
15
|
on such a one calamity will descend suddenly; in a moment, damage beyond repair. |
16
|
There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him: |
17
|
haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, |
18
|
a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that hurry to run to evil, |
19
|
a lying witness who testifies falsely, and one who sows discord in a family. |
20
|
My child, keep your father's commandment, and do not forsake your mother's teaching. |
21
|
Bind them upon your heart always; tie them around your neck. |
22
|
When you walk, they will lead you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk with you. |
23
|
For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life, |
24
|
to preserve you from the wife of another, from the smooth tongue of the adulteress. |
25
|
Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes; |
26
|
for a prostitute's fee is only a loaf of bread, but the wife of another stalks a man's very life. |
27
|
Can fire be carried in the bosom without burning one's clothes? |
28
|
Or can one walk on hot coals without scorching the feet? |
29
|
So is he who sleeps with his neighbor's wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished. |
30
|
Thieves are not despised who steal only to satisfy their appetite when they are hungry. |
31
|
Yet if they are caught, they will pay sevenfold; they will forfeit all the goods of their house. |
32
|
But he who commits adultery has no sense; he who does it destroys himself. |
33
|
He will get wounds and dishonor, and his disgrace will not be wiped away. |
34
|
For jealousy arouses a husband's fury, and he shows no restraint when he takes revenge. |
35
|
He will accept no compensation, and refuses a bribe no matter how great. |
