Proverbs:6-7




rotherham@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if thou have become surety for thy neighbour, have struck for a stranger thy hands,

rotherham@Proverbs:6:2 @ Thou hast been snared by the sayings of thy mouth, thou hast been caught by the sayings of thy mouth.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:3 @ Do this then, my son, and deliver thyself, When thou hast come into the hand of thy neighbour, Go, haste thee, and urge thy neighbour;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:4 @ Do not give sleep to thine eyes, or slumber to thine eyelashes;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:5 @ Deliver thyself, as a gazelle out of the hand, and as a bird, out of the hand of the fowler.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, thou sluggard, observe her ways, and be wise;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:7 @ Which, having no harvest, scribe, or ruler,

rotherham@Proverbs:6:8 @ Prepareth, in the summer, her food, hath collected, in the harvest, her sustenance.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long, O sluggard, wilt thou lie? how long ere thou rise from thy sleep?

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

rotherham@Proverbs:6:11 @ So shall come in, as a highwayman, thy poverty, and, thy want, as one armed with a shield.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:12 @ An abandoned man, a man of iniquity, whogoeth on in perversity of mouth;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:13 @ Winketh with his eyes, speaketh with his foot, pointeth with his fingers;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:14 @ perverse things in his heart, deviseth mischief on every occasion, strifes, he sendeth forth.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:15 @ For this cause, suddenly cometh his doom, in a moment, shall he be torn in pieces and there be no mending.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:16 @ These six things, doth Yahweh hate, yea, seven, are the abomination of his soul:

rotherham@Proverbs:6:17 @ Eyes that are lofty, a tongue that is false, and hands shedding innocent blood;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:18 @ A heart contriving iniquitous devices, feet hasting to run into mischief;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:19 @ One that uttereth liesa false witness, and one sending forth strifes between brethren.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:20 @ Observe thou, my son, the commandment of thy father, and do not decline from the instruction of thy mother:

rotherham@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them upon thy heart continually, fasten them upon thy neck;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:22 @ When thou walkest abroad, it shall guide thee, when thou sleepest, it shall watch over thee, when thou wakest, it shall speak to thee:

rotherham@Proverbs:6:23 @ For, a lamp, is the commandment, and, the instruction, a light, and, the way of life, are the reproofs of correction:

rotherham@Proverbs:6:24 @ To keep thee from the wicked woman, from the flattery of the tongue of her that is a stranger.

rotherham@Proverbs:6:25 @ Do not covet her beauty, in thy heart, neither let her take thee, by her eyelashes;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:26 @ Because, for the sake of an impure woman, even to a cake of bread, and, a mans wife, for a precious soul, may hunt!

rotherham@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man snatch up fire in his bosom, and, his clothes, not be burned?

rotherham@Proverbs:6:28 @ Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and, his feet, not be burned?

rotherham@Proverbs:6:29 @ So, he that goeth in unto his neighbours wife, no man shall be guiltless who toucheth her!

rotherham@Proverbs:6:30 @ Men despise not a thief, when he stealeth, to satisfy his appetite, because he is famished;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:31 @ Yet, if found, he must pay back sevenfold, All the substance of his house, must he give:

rotherham@Proverbs:6:32 @ He that committeth adultery with a woman, lacketh sense, A destroyer of his own life, is he that doeth it;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:33 @ Smiting and shame, shall he find, and, his reproach, shall not be wiped out;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:34 @ For, jealousy, is the rage of a man, nor will he spare, in the day of avenging;

rotherham@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will not look, at any ransom, neither will he consent, though thou increase the bribe.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my sayings, and, my commandments, treasure by thee;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:2 @ Keep my commandments and live, and mine instruction, as the pupil of thine eye;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:3 @ Bind them upon thy fingers, write them, on the tablet of thy heart;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:4 @ Say unto wisdom, My sister, thou! and, an acquaintance, call thou, understanding:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:5 @ That thou mayest be kept, from the woman that is a stranger, from the female unknown, who, with her speeches, doth flatter.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:6 @ For, in the window of my house, through my lattice, I looked out;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:7 @ And saw among the simple ones, discerned among the youths, A young man lacking sense;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:8 @ Passing through the street, near her corner, and, on the way to her house, he sauntered along;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:9 @ In the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the midst of the night, and the gloom;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:10 @ And lo! a woman, came to meet him, attired as one unchaste, of a wily heart.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:11 @ Boisterous, is she, and rebellious, In her house, abide not her feet;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:12 @ Now outside, now in the broadways, and, near every corner, she lieth in wait:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him, and kissed him, and, embolding her face, she said to him:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:14 @ Peace-offerings, are by me, to-day, have I paid my vows;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:15 @ For this cause, came I forth to meet thee, to seek diligently thy face, and I have found thee:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:16 @ Coverlets, have I spread on my couch of pleasure, dark-hued stuffs, of the yarn of Egypt;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have sprinkled my bed, with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come! let us take our fill of endearments, until morning, let us delight ourselves with caresses;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:19 @ For the husband is not in his house, he hath gone on a journey afar;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:20 @ A bag of silver, hath he taken in his hand, On the day of the full moon, will he enter his house.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:21 @ She turneth him aside, with her great persuasiveness, with the flattery of her lips, she compelleth him:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:22 @ Going after her instantly, as an ox, to the slaughter, he entereth, and, as in fetters, unto the correction of a fool.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:23 @ Until an arrow cleaveth his liver, as a bird hasteth into a snare, and knoweth not, that, for his life, it is!

rotherham@Proverbs:7:24 @ Now, therefore, ye sons, hearken unto me, and attend, to the sayings of my mouth;

rotherham@Proverbs:7:25 @ Let not thy heart, turn aside to her ways, Do not go astray, in her paths.

rotherham@Proverbs:7:26 @ For, many, wounded, hath she caused to fail, yea strong men, slain wholly by her:

rotherham@Proverbs:7:27 @ Ways to hades, are in her house, descending into the chambers of death.

rotherham@Proverbs:8:1 @ Doth not, wisdom, cry aloud? and, understanding, send forth her voice?
