Proverbs 6




noyes@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if thou hast become surety for another, If thou hast stricken hands for another,

noyes@Proverbs:6:2 @ If thou hast become ensnared by the words of thy mouth, If thou hast been caught by the words of thy mouth,

noyes@Proverbs:6:3 @ Do this now, my son, and rescue thyself,––Since thou hast fallen into the hands of thy neighbor,––Go, prostrate thyself, and be urgent with thy neighbor!

noyes@Proverbs:6:4 @ Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids;

noyes@Proverbs:6:5 @ Rescue thyself, as a roe from the hand, And as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

noyes@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, O sluggard! Consider her ways, and be wise!

noyes@Proverbs:6:7 @ She hath no governor, Nor overseer, nor ruler;

noyes@Proverbs:6:8 @ Yet she prepareth in the summer her food, She gathereth in the harvest her meat.

noyes@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long wilt thou lie in bed, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise from thy sleep?

noyes@Proverbs:6:10 @ "A little sleep,––a little slumber,––A little folding of the hands to rest:"

noyes@Proverbs:6:11 @ So shall thy poverty come upon thee like a robber, Yea, thy want, as an armed man!

noyes@Proverbs:6:12 @ A worthless wretch is the unrighteous man, Who walketh with a deceitful mouth;

noyes@Proverbs:6:13 @ Who winketh with his eyes, Speaketh with his feet, And teacheth with his fingers.

noyes@Proverbs:6:14 @ Fraud is in his heart; He deviseth mischief continually; He scattereth contentions.

noyes@Proverbs:6:15 @ Therefore shall calamity come upon him suddenly; In a moment shall he be destroyed, and that without remedy;

noyes@Proverbs:6:16 @ These six things doth the LORD hate; Yea, seven are an abomination to him:

noyes@Proverbs:6:17 @ Lofty eyes, a false tongue, And hands which shed innocent blood;

noyes@Proverbs:6:18 @ A heart that contriveth wicked devices; Feet that are swift in running to mischief,

noyes@Proverbs:6:19 @ A false witness, that uttereth lies, And him that soweth discord among brethren.

noyes@Proverbs:6:20 @ Keep, O my son! the commandment of thy father, And forsake not the precepts of thy mother!

noyes@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them continually to thy heart, Tie them around thy neck!

noyes@Proverbs:6:22 @ When thou goest forth, they shall guide thee; When thou sleepest, they shall watch over thee; And, when thou awakest, they shall talk with thee.

noyes@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment is a lamp, and instruction a light; Yea, the rebukes of correction lead to life.

noyes@Proverbs:6:24 @ They shall guard thee from the evil woman, From the smooth tongue of the unchaste woman.

noyes@Proverbs:6:25 @ Desire not her beauty in thy heart, Nor let her catch thee with her eyelids;

noyes@Proverbs:6:26 @ For by a harlot a man is brought to a morsel of bread, And the adulteress layeth snares for the precious life.

noyes@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man take fire into his bosom, And his clothes not be burned?

noyes@Proverbs:6:28 @ Can one walk upon burning coals, And his feet not be scorched?

noyes@Proverbs:6:29 @ So is it with him who goeth in to his neighbor’s wife; Whoever toucheth her shall not go unpunished.

noyes@Proverbs:6:30 @ Men do not overlook a thief, Though he steal to satisfy his appetite, when he is hungry;

noyes@Proverbs:6:31 @ If found, he must repay sevenfold, And give up all the substance of his house.

noyes@Proverbs:6:32 @ Whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding; He that doeth it destroyeth himself;

noyes@Proverbs:6:33 @ Blows and dishonor shall he get, And his reproach shall not be wiped away.

noyes@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy is the fury of a man; He will not spare in the day of vengeance;

noyes@Proverbs:6:35 @ And he will not pay regard to any ransom, Nor be content, though thou offer many gifts.
