Proverbs 6:1 (AMP) Amplified Bibles

1 MY SON, if you have become security for your neighbor, if you have given your pledge for a stranger or another,
2 You are snared with the words of your lips, you are caught by the speech of your mouth.
3 Do this now at once and earnestly, my son, and deliver yourself when you have put yourself into the power of your neighbor; go, bestir and humble yourself, and beg your neighbor to pay his debt and thereby release you.
4 Give not unnecessary sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids;
5 Deliver yourself, as a roe or gazelle from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise!--Job 12:7.
7 Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler,
8 Provides her food in the summer and gathers her supplies in the harvest.
9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep? Prov. 24:33, 34.
10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down and sleep--
11 So will your poverty come like a robber or one who travels with slowly but surely approaching steps and your want like an armed man making you helpless. Prov. 10:4; 13:4; 20:4.
12 A worthless person, a wicked man, is he who goes about with a perverse (contrary, wayward) mouth.
13 He winks with his eyes, he speaks by shuffling or tapping with his feet, he makes signs to mislead and deceive and teaches with his fingers.
14 Willful and contrary in his heart, he devises trouble, vexation, and evil continually; he lets loose discord and sows it.
15 Therefore upon him shall the crushing weight of calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken, and that without remedy.
16 These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, Ps. 120:2, 3.
18 A heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil,
19 A false witness who breathes out lies even under oath, and he who sows discord among his brethren.
20 My son, keep your father's God-given commandment and forsake not the law of God your mother taught you. Eph. 6:1-3.
21 Bind them continually upon your heart and tie them about your neck. Prov. 3:3; 7:3.
22 When you go, they the words of your parents' God shall lead you; when you sleep, they shall keep you; and when you waken, they shall talk with you.
23 For the commandment is a lamp, and the whole teaching of the law is light, and reproofs of discipline are the way of life, Ps. 19:8; 119:105.
24 To keep you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a loose woman.
25 Lust not after her beauty in your heart, neither let her capture you with her eyelids.
26 For on account of a harlot a man is brought to a piece of bread, and the adulteress stalks and snares as with a hook the precious life of a man.
27 Can a man take fire in his bosom and his clothes not be burned?
28 Can one go upon hot coals and his feet not be burned?
29 So he who cohabits with his neighbor's wife will be tortured with evil consequences and just retribution; he who touches her shall not be innocent or go unpunished.
30 Men do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry;
31 But if he is found out, he must restore seven times what he stole; he must give the whole substance of his house if necessary--to meet his fine.
32 But whoever commits adultery with a woman lacks heart and understanding (moral principle and prudence); he who does it is destroying his own life.
33 Wounds and disgrace will he get, and his reproach will not be wiped away.
34 For jealousy makes the wronged man furious; therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance upon the detected one.
35 He will not consider any ransom offered to buy him off from demanding full punishment; neither will he be satisfied, though you offer him many gifts and bribes.
1 My son H1121 NMS-1MS , if H518 PART thou be surety H6148 VQQ2MS for thy friend H7453 L-CMS-2MS , if thou hast stricken H8628 VQQ2MS thy hand H3709 CFD-2MS with a stranger H2114 LD-AMS ,
2 Thou art snared H3369 with the words H561 of thy mouth H6310 CMS-2MS , thou art taken H3920 with the words H561 of thy mouth H6310 CMS-2MS .
3 Do H6213 VQI2MS this H2063 DPRO now H645 CONJ , my son H1121 NMS-1MS , and deliver thyself H5337 , when H3588 CONJ thou art come H935 into the hand H3709 of thy friend H7453 ; go H1980 VQI2MS , humble thyself H7511 , and make sure H7292 thy friend H7453 .
4 Give H5414 VQY2MS not H408 NPAR sleep H8142 to thine eyes H5869 , nor slumber H8572 to thine eyelids H6079 .
5 Deliver thyself H5337 as a roe H6643 from the hand H3027 of the hunter , and as a bird H6833 from the hand H3027 M-GFS of the fowler H3353 .
6 Go H1980 to H413 PREP the ant H5244 , thou sluggard H6102 ; consider H7200 VQI2MS her ways H1870 , and be wise H2449 :
7 Which H834 RPRO having no H369 ADV guide H7101 , overseer H7860 , or ruler H4910 ,
8 Provideth H3559 VHY3FS her meat H3899 in the summer H7019 , and gathereth H103 her food H3978 in the harvest H7105 .
9 How long H5704 PREP wilt thou sleep H7901 , O sluggard H6102 ? when H4970 IGAT wilt thou arise H6965 out of thy sleep H8142 ?
10 Yet a little H4592 AMS sleep H8142 , a little H4592 AMS slumber H8572 , a little H4592 AMS folding H2264 of the hands H3027 NFD to sleep H7901 :
11 So shall thy poverty H7389 come H935 as one that traveleth H1980 , and thy want H4270 as an armed H4043 man H376 .
12 A naughty H1100 person H120 NMS , a wicked H205 NMS man H376 NMS , walketh H1980 VQPMS with a froward H6143 mouth H6310 NMS .
13 He winketh H7169 with his eyes H5869 B-CMD-3MS , he speaketh H4448 with his feet H7272 , he teacheth H3384 with his fingers H676 ;
14 Frowardness H8419 is in his heart H3820 , he deviseth H2790 mischief H7451 AMS continually H3605 B-CMS ; he soweth H7971 discord H4066 .
15 Therefore H5921 PREP shall his calamity H343 come H935 VQY3MS suddenly H6597 ADV ; suddenly H6621 shall he be broken H7665 without H369 W-NPAR remedy H4832 .
16 These H2007 PPRO-3FP six H8337 things doth the LORD H3068 EDS hate H8130 : yea , seven H7651 are an abomination H8441 unto him H5315 CFS-3MS :
17 A proud H7311 look H5869 NMD , a lying H8267 NMS tongue H3956 L-CMS , and hands H3027 W-NFD that shed H8210 innocent H5355 blood H1818 NMS ,
18 A heart H3820 NMS that deviseth H2790 wicked H205 NMS imaginations H4284 CFP , feet H7272 that be swift H4116 in running H7323 to mischief H7451 ,
19 A false H8267 NMS witness H5707 that speaketh H6315 lies H3577 , and he that soweth H7971 discord H4090 among H996 PREP brethren H251 .
20 My son H1121 NMS-1MS , keep H5341 thy father H1 NMS \'s commandment H4687 CFS , and forsake H5203 VQY2MS not H408 W-NPAR the law H8451 CFS of thy mother H517 CFS-2MS :
21 Bind H7194 them continually H8548 upon H5921 PREP thine heart H3820 CMS-2MS , and tie H6029 them about H5921 PREP thy neck H1621 .
22 When thou goest H1980 , it shall lead H5148 thee H853 PART-2FS ; when thou sleepest H7901 , it shall keep H8104 VQY2MS thee ; and when thou awakest H6974 , it H1931 PPRO-3FS shall talk H7878 with thee .
23 For H3588 CONJ the commandment H4687 is a lamp H5216 CMS ; and the law H8451 is light H216 NMS ; and reproofs H8433 of instruction H4148 are the way H1870 W-NMS of life H2416 NMP :
24 To keep H8104 L-VQFC-2MS thee from the evil H7451 AMS woman H802 , from the flattery H2513 of the tongue H3956 NMS of a strange woman H5237 .
25 Lust H2530 not H408 NPAR after her beauty H3308 in thine heart H3824 ; neither H408 ADV let her take H3947 thee with her eyelids H6079 .
26 For H3588 CONJ by means H1157 of a whorish H2181 woman H802 NFS a man is brought to H5704 a piece H3603 CFS of bread H3899 NMS : and the adulteress H802 W-CFS will hunt H6679 for the precious H3368 life H5315 GFS .
27 Can a man H376 NMS take H2846 fire H784 CMS in his bosom H2436 , and his clothes H899 not H3808 NADV be burned H8313 ?
28 Can H518 PART one H376 NMS go H1980 upon H5921 PREP hot coals H1513 , and his feet H7272 not H3808 NADV be burned H3554 ?
29 So H3651 ADV he that goeth in H935 to H413 PREP his neighbor H7453 NMS-3MS \'s wife H802 CFS ; whosoever H3605 CMS toucheth H5060 her shall not H3808 NADV be innocent H5352 .
30 Men do not H3808 NADV despise H936 a thief H1590 , if H3588 CONJ he steal H1589 to satisfy H4390 L-VPFC his soul H5315 NMS-3MS when H3588 CONJ he is hungry H7456 ;
31 But if he be found H4672 , he shall restore H7999 VPY3MS sevenfold H7659 ; he shall give H5414 VQY3MS all H3605 NMS the substance H1952 NMS of his house H1004 NMS-3MS .
32 But whoso committeth adultery H5003 VQPMS with a woman H802 NFS lacketh H2638 JMS understanding H3820 NMS : he H1931 PPRO-3MS that doeth H6213 it destroyeth H7843 his own soul H5315 NMS-3MS .
33 A wound H5061 and dishonor H7036 shall he get H4672 VQY3MS ; and his reproach H2781 shall not H3808 NADV be wiped away H4229 .
34 For H3588 CONJ jealousy H7068 is the rage H2534 of a man H1397 NMS : therefore he will not H3808 W-NPAR spare H2550 VQY3MS in the day H3117 B-NMS of vengeance H5359 .
35 He will not H3808 NADV regard H6440 CMP any H3605 CMS ransom H3724 NMS ; neither H3808 ADV will he rest content H14 , though H3588 CONJ thou givest many H7235 gifts H7810 NMS .
