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