Proverbs 6
1My son 2 if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger, 1
2you 2 you are ensnared with the words of your mouth. 1
3Do 2 since you have come into the hand of your neighbour. 1 Go, humble yourself. 2 Press your plea with your neighbour. 1
4Give 2 nor slumber to your eyelids. 1
5Free yourself 2 like a bird from the snare of the fowler. 1
6Go 2 Consider her ways, and be wise; 1
7which having no chief 2
8provides 2 and gathers her food in the harvest. 1
9How 2 When will you arise out of your sleep? 1
10A 2 a little folding of the hands to sleep— 1
11so 2 and your scarcity as an armed man. 1
12A 2 is he who walks with a perverse mouth, 1
13who winks 2 who motions with his fingers, 1
14in 2 who devises evil continually, 2 who always sows discord. 1
15Therefore 2 He will be broken suddenly, and that without remedy. 1
16There 2 yes, seven which are an abomination to him: 1
17arrogant eyes 2 hands that shed innocent blood, 1
18a 2 feet that are swift in running to mischief, 1
19a 2 and he who sows discord amongst brothers. 1
20My 2 and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching. 1
21Bind 2 Tie them around your neck. 1
22When 2 When you sleep, it will watch over you. 2 When you awake, it will talk with you. 1
23For 2 and the Torah is light. 2 Reproofs of instruction are the way of life, 1
24to 2 from the flattery of the wayward wife’s tongue. 1
25Don’t lust 2 neither let her captivate you with her eyelids. 1
26For 2 The adulteress hunts for your precious life. 1
27Can 2 and his clothes not be burnt? 1
28Or 2 and his feet not be scorched? 1
29So 2 Whoever touches her will not be unpunished. 1
30Men 2 if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry, 1
31but 2 He shall give all the wealth of his house. 1
32He 2 He who does it destroys his own soul. 1
33He 2 His reproach will not be wiped away. 1
34For 2 He won’t spare in the day of vengeance. 1
35He 2 neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.
