Proverbs 6
1 O son my if you have stood surety for fellow-citizen your you have struck for the stranger palms your.
MY son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,
2 You have been ensnared by [the] words of mouth your you have been caught by [the] words of mouth your.
Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.
3 Do this then - O son my and deliver yourself for you have come in [the] palm of neighbor your go humble yourself and importune neighbor your.
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.
4 May not you give sleep to eyes your and slumber to eyelids your.
Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
5 Deliver yourself like a gazelle from a hand and like a bird from [the] hand of a fowler.
Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6 Go to an ant O sluggard consider ways its and become wise.
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
7 Which not [belongs] to it [is] commander of icer and ruler.
Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
8 It prepares in the summer food its it gathers at the harvest food its.
Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.
9 Until when? O sluggard - will you lie down when? will you rise from sleep your.
How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
10 A little of sleep a little of slumber a little of - folding of hands to rest.
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 And it will come like a traveler poverty your and lack your like a man of shield.
So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.
12 A person of worthlessness a person of wickedness [is] walking crookedness of mouth.
A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.
13 [he is] winking (With eyes his *Q(K)*) [he is] scraping (with feet his *Q(K)*) [he is] pointing with fingers his.
He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;
14 Perverse things - [are] in heart his [he is] devising evil at every time (contentions *Q(K)*) he sends out.
Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.
15 There-fore suddenly it will come disaster his an instant he will be broken and there not [will be] healing.
Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
16 Six [things] those he hates Yahweh and [are] seven ([the] disgusting thing of *Q(K)*) self his.
These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 Eyes haughty a tongue of falsehood and hands [which] shed blood innocent.
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 A heart [which] devises plans of wickedness feet [which] hurry to run to evil.
An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 [who] he breathes out Lies a witness of falsehood and [one who] spreads contentions between brothers.
A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
20 Keep O son my [the] commandment of father your and may not you forsake [the] instruction of mother your.
My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
21 Bind them on heart your continually tie them on necks your.
Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.
22 When walking about you - it will guide you when lying down you it will watch over you and you will awake it it will speak to you.
When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.
23 For [is] a lamp [the] commandment and [the] instruction [is] a light and [are] a way of life rebukes of discipline.
For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
24 To keep you from a woman of evil from smoothness of tongue a foreign [woman].
To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
25 May not you desire beauty her in heart your and may not she capture you with eyelids her.
Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
26 For [the] price a woman a prostitute to a round loaf of bread and [the] wife of a man a life precious she hunts.
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.
27 ¿ Will he snatch up a man fire in bosom his and garments his not will they be burned?
Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
28 Or? will he walk? a man on burning coals and feet his not will they be scorched.
Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
29 [is] thus The [one who] goes into [the] wife of neighbor his not he will go unpunished every [one who] touches her.
So he that goeth in to his neighbour’s wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.
30 Not people despise the thief if he will steal to fill appetite his for he will be hungry.
Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;

But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.
32 [one who] commits adultery A woman [is] lacking of heart [one who] destroys own self his he he will do it.
But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.
33 A wound and shame he will find and reproach his not it will be wiped away.
A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.
34 For jealousy [is the] rage of a man and not he will have compassion on a day of vengeance.
For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35 Not he will lift up [the] face of any ransom and not he will be willing for you will make great a bribe.
He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
