King James Version |   | |
 |
| |
| | 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.
