Proverbs Capítulo 6

6 : 1 My son, if thou have become surety for thy neighbor, if thou have struck thy hands for a stranger,

6 : 2 thou are snared with the words of thy mouth, thou are taken with the words of thy mouth.

6 : 3 Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, since thou have come into the hand of thy neighbor. Go, humble thyself, and importune thy neighbor.

6 : 4 Do not give sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

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

6 : 6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise.

6 : 7 Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler,

6 : 8 provides her bread in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.

6 : 9 How long will thou sleep, O sluggard? When will thou arise out of thy sleep?

6 : 10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep,

6 : 11 so thy poverty shall come as a robber, and thy want as an armed man.

6 : 12 A worthless person, a man of iniquity, is he who walks with a perverse mouth,

6 : 13 who winks with his eyes, who speaks with his feet, who makes signs with his fingers,

6 : 14 in whose heart is perverseness, who devises evil continually, who sows discord.

6 : 15 Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly. Suddenly he shall be broken, and that without remedy.

6 : 16 There are six things which Jehovah hates, yea, seven which are an abomination to him:

6 : 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

6 : 18 a heart that devises wicked purposes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,

6 : 19 a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.

6 : 20 My son, keep the commandment of thy father, and do not forsake the law of thy mother.

6 : 21 Bind them continually upon thy heart. Tie them about thy neck.

6 : 22 When thou walk, it shall lead thee. When thou sleep, it shall watch over thee. And when thou awake, it shall talk with thee.

6 : 23 For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light, and reproofs of instruction are the way of life,

6 : 24 to keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the stranger's tongue.

6 : 25 Do not lust after her beauty in thy heart, nor let her take thee with her eyelids.

6 : 26 For the price of a harlot is as much as a piece of bread, but the adulteress hunts for the precious life.

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

6 : 28 Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?

6 : 29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife. Whoever touches her shall not be unpunished.

6 : 30 Men do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry.

6 : 31 Yet if he is found, he shall restore sevenfold. He shall give all the substance of his house.

6 : 32 He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding. He who would destroy his own soul does it.

6 : 33 Wounds and dishonor he shall get, and his reproach shall not be wiped away.

6 : 34 For jealousy is a man's fury, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

6 : 35 He will not regard any ransom, nor will he be satisfied, though thou give many gifts.
