Parental Counsel |
|
|
 |
| Proverbs 6:1 |
|
My son, if you have become surety for your neighbor,
Have given a pledge for a stranger, |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:2 |
|
If you have been snared with the words of your
mouth, Have been caught with the words of your mouth, |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:3 |
|
Do this then, my son, and deliver yourself;
Since you have come into the hand of your neighbor, Go, humble yourself, and importune
your neighbor. |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:4 |
|
Give no sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your
eyelids; |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:5 |
|
Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hunter's
hand And like a bird from the hand of the fowler. |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:6 |
|
Go to the ant, O sluggard, Observe her ways
and be wise, |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:7 |
|
Which, having no chief, Officer or ruler, |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:8 |
|
Prepares her food in the summer And gathers
her provision in the harvest. |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:9 |
|
How long will you lie down, O sluggard? When
will you arise from your sleep? |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:10 |
|
"A little sleep, a little slumber, A little
folding of the hands to rest"-- |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:11 |
|
Your poverty will come in like a vagabond And
your need like an armed man. |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:12 |
|
A worthless person, a wicked man, Is the one
who walks with a perverse mouth, |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:13 |
|
Who winks with his eyes, who signals with his
feet, Who points with his fingers; |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:14 |
|
Who with perversity in his heart continually
devises evil, Who spreads strife. |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:15 |
|
Therefore his calamity will come suddenly; Instantly
he will be broken and there will be no healing. |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:16 |
|
There are six things which the LORD hates, Yes,
seven which are an abomination to Him: |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:17 |
|
Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that
shed innocent blood, |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:18 |
|
A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that
run rapidly to evil, |
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:19 |
|
A false witness who utters lies, And one who
spreads strife among brothers. |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:20 |
|
My son, observe the commandment of your father
And do not forsake the teaching of your mother; |
| |
|
|
| Proverbs 6:21 |
|
Bind them continually on your heart; Tie them
around your neck. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:22 |
|
When you walk about, they will guide you; When
you sleep, they will watch over you; And when you awake, they will talk to you.
|
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:23 |
|
For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching
is light; And reproofs for discipline are the way of life |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:24 |
|
To keep you from the evil woman, From the smooth
tongue of the adulteress. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:25 |
|
Do not desire her beauty in your heart, Nor
let her capture you with her eyelids. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:26 |
|
For on account of a harlot one is reduced to
a loaf of bread, And an adulteress hunts for the precious life. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:27 |
|
Can a man take fire in his bosom And his clothes
not be burned? |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:28 |
|
Or can a man walk on hot coals And his feet
not be scorched? |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:29 |
|
So is the one who goes in to his neighbor's
wife; Whoever touches her will not go unpunished. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:30 |
|
Men do not despise a thief if he steals To satisfy
himself when he is hungry; |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:31 |
|
But when he is found, he must repay sevenfold;
He must give all the substance of his house. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:32 |
|
The one who commits adultery with a woman is
lacking sense; He who would destroy himself does it. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:33 |
|
Wounds and disgrace he will find, And his reproach
will not be blotted out. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:34 |
|
For jealousy enrages a man, And he will not
spare in the day of vengeance. |
|
|
|
|
| Proverbs 6:35 |
|
He will not accept any ransom, Nor will he be
satisfied though you give many gifts. |
