kjv - Proverbs:4-6

kjv@Proverbs:4:1 @ Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

kjv@Proverbs:4:2 @ For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.

kjv@Proverbs:4:3 @ For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

kjv@Proverbs:4:4 @ He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.

kjv@Proverbs:4:5 @ Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

kjv@Proverbs:4:6 @ Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.

kjv@Proverbs:4:7 @ Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

kjv@Proverbs:4:8 @ Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

kjv@Proverbs:4:9 @ She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

kjv@Proverbs:4:10 @ Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

kjv@Proverbs:4:11 @ I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

kjv@Proverbs:4:12 @ When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.

kjv@Proverbs:4:13 @ Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.

kjv@Proverbs:4:14 @ Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.

kjv@Proverbs:4:15 @ Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.

kjv@Proverbs:4:16 @ For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.

kjv@Proverbs:4:17 @ For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.

kjv@Proverbs:4:18 @ But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

kjv@Proverbs:4:19 @ The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.

kjv@Proverbs:4:20 @ My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

kjv@Proverbs:4:21 @ Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

kjv@Proverbs:4:22 @ For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

kjv@Proverbs:4:23 @ Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

kjv@Proverbs:4:24 @ Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

kjv@Proverbs:4:25 @ Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

kjv@Proverbs:4:26 @ Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.

kjv@Proverbs:4:27 @ Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

kjv@Proverbs:5:1 @ My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:

kjv@Proverbs:5:2 @ That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.

kjv@Proverbs:5:3 @ For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:

kjv@Proverbs:5:4 @ But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.

kjv@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.

kjv@Proverbs:5:6 @ Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.

kjv@Proverbs:5:7 @ Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.

kjv@Proverbs:5:8 @ Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:

kjv@Proverbs:5:9 @ Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:

kjv@Proverbs:5:10 @ Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;

kjv@Proverbs:5:11 @ And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,

kjv@Proverbs:5:12 @ And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;

kjv@Proverbs:5:13 @ And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!

kjv@Proverbs:5:14 @ I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.

kjv@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.

kjv@Proverbs:5:16 @ Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.

kjv@Proverbs:5:17 @ Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.

kjv@Proverbs:5:18 @ Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.

kjv@Proverbs:5:19 @ Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.

kjv@Proverbs:5:20 @ And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

kjv@Proverbs:5:21 @ For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.

kjv@Proverbs:5:22 @ His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.

kjv@Proverbs:5:23 @ He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.

kjv@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

kjv@Proverbs:6:2 @ Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.

kjv@Proverbs: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.

kjv@Proverbs:6:4 @ Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

kjv@Proverbs:6:5 @ Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

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

kjv@Proverbs:6:7 @ Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

kjv@Proverbs:6:8 @ Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

kjv@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

kjv@Proverbs:6:10 @ Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

kjv@Proverbs:6:11 @ So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

kjv@Proverbs:6:12 @ A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

kjv@Proverbs:6:13 @ He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

kjv@Proverbs:6:14 @ Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

kjv@Proverbs:6:15 @ Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

kjv@Proverbs:6:16 @ These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

kjv@Proverbs:6:17 @ A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

kjv@Proverbs:6:18 @ An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

kjv@Proverbs:6:19 @ A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

kjv@Proverbs:6:20 @ My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

kjv@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

kjv@Proverbs: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.

kjv@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

kjv@Proverbs:6:24 @ To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

kjv@Proverbs:6:25 @ Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

kjv@Proverbs:6:26 @ For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

kjv@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

kjv@Proverbs:6:28 @ Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

kjv@Proverbs:6:29 @ So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.

kjv@Proverbs:6:30 @ Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;

kjv@Proverbs:6:31 @ But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.

kjv@Proverbs:6:32 @ But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

kjv@Proverbs:6:33 @ A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.

kjv@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

kjv@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.

kjv@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
