{Proverbs 6:1} My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, [if] thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:2} Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:3} Do this now, my son, deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:4} Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:5} Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand [of the hunter,] and as a bird from the hand of the fowler. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:6} Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:7} Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:8} Provideth her meat in the summer, [and] gathereth her food in the harvest. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:9} How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:10} [Yet] a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

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

{Proverbs 6:12} A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:13} He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:14} Frowardness [is] in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:15} Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:16} These six [things] doth the LORD hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:17} A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:18} An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:19} A false witness [that] speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:20} My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:21} Bind them continually upon thine heart, [and] tie them about thy neck. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:23} For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light; and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:24} To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

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

{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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:27} Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:28} Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:29} So he that goeth in to his neighbour’s wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:30} [Men] do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:31} But [if] he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:32} [But] whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he [that] doeth it destroyeth his own soul. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:33} A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 6:34} For jealousy [is] the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

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