My sonH1121, if thou be suretyH6148 for thy friendH7453, if thou hast strickenH8628 thy handH3709 with a strangerH2114,
Thou art snaredH3369 with the wordsH561 of thy mouthH6310, thou art takenH3920 with the wordsH561 of thy mouthH6310.
DoH6213 this nowH645, my sonH1121, and deliverH5337 thyself, when thou art comeH935 into the handH3709 of thy friendH7453; goH3212, humbleH7511 thyself, and make sureH7292 thy friendH7453. {and make…: or, so shalt thou prevail with thy friend}
GiveH5414 not sleepH8142 to thine eyesH5869, nor slumberH8572 to thine eyelidsH6079.
DeliverH5337 thyself as a roeH6643 from the handH3027 of the hunter, and as a birdH6833 from the handH3027 of the fowlerH3353.
GoH3212 to the antH5244, thou sluggardH6102; considerH7200 her waysH1870, and be wiseH2449:
Which having no guideH7101, overseerH7860, or rulerH4910,
ProvidethH3559 her meatH3899 in the summerH7019, and gatherethH103 her foodH3978 in the harvestH7105.
How long wilt thou sleepH7901, O sluggardH6102? when wilt thou ariseH6965 out of thy sleepH8142?
Yet a littleH4592 sleepH8142, a littleH4592 slumberH8572, a littleH4592 foldingH2264 of the handsH3027 to sleepH7901:
So shall thy povertyH7389 comeH935 as one that travellethH1980, and thy wantH4270 as an armedH4043 manH376.
A naughtyH1100 personH120, a wickedH205 manH376, walkethH1980 with a frowardH6143 mouthH6310.
He winkethH7169 with his eyesH5869, he speakethH4448 with his feetH7272, he teachethH3384 with his fingersH676;
FrowardnessH8419 is in his heartH3820, he devisethH2790 mischiefH7451 continuallyH6256; he sowethH7971 discordH4066+H4090. {soweth: Heb. casteth forth}
Therefore shall his calamityH343 comeH935 suddenlyH6597; suddenlyH6621 shall he be brokenH7665 without remedyH4832.
These sixH8337 things doth the LORDH3068 hateH8130: yea, sevenH7651 are an abominationH8441 unto himH5315: {unto…: Heb. of his soul}
A proudH7311 lookH5869, a lyingH8267 tongueH3956, and handsH3027 that shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, {A proud…: Heb. Haughty eyes}
An heartH3820 that devisethH2790 wickedH205 imaginationsH4284, feetH7272 that be swiftH4116 in runningH7323 to mischiefH7451,
A falseH8267 witnessH5707 that speakethH6315 liesH3577, and he that sowethH7971 discordH4090 among brethrenH251.
My sonH1121, keepH5341 thy father'sH1 commandmentH4687, and forsakeH5203 not the lawH8451 of thy motherH517:
BindH7194 them continuallyH8548 upon thine heartH3820, and tieH6029 them about thy neckH1621.
When thou goestH1980, it shall leadH5148 thee; when thou sleepestH7901, it shall keepH8104 thee; and when thou awakestH6974, it shall talkH7878 with thee.
For the commandmentH4687 is a lampH5216; and the lawH8451 is lightH216; and reproofsH8433 of instructionH4148 are the wayH1870 of lifeH2416: {lamp: or, candle}
To keepH8104 thee from the evilH7451 womanH802, from the flatteryH2513 of the tongueH3956 of a strange womanH5237. {of the…: or, of the strange tongue}
LustH2530 not after her beautyH3308 in thine heartH3824; neither let her takeH3947 thee with her eyelidsH6079.
For by means ofH1157 a whorishH2181 womanH802 a man is brought to a pieceH3603 of breadH3899: and the adulteressH802+H376 will huntH6679 for the preciousH3368 lifeH5315. {the adulteress: Heb. the woman of a man, or, a man's wife}
Can a manH376 takeH2846 fireH784 in his bosomH2436, and his clothesH899 not be burnedH8313?
Can oneH376 goH1980 upon hot coalsH1513, and his feetH7272 not be burnedH3554?
So he that goeth inH935 to his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802; whosoever touchethH5060 her shall not be innocentH5352.
Men do not despiseH936 a thiefH1590, if he stealH1589 to satisfyH4390 his soulH5315 when he is hungryH7456;
But if he be foundH4672, he shall restoreH7999 sevenfoldH7659; he shall giveH5414 all the substanceH1952 of his houseH1004.
But whoso committeth adulteryH5003 with a womanH802 lackethH2638 understandingH3820: he that doethH6213 it destroyethH7843 his own soulH5315. {understanding: Heb. heart}
A woundH5061 and dishonourH7036 shall he getH4672; and his reproachH2781 shall not be wiped awayH4229.
For jealousyH7068 is the rageH2534 of a manH1397: therefore he will not spareH2550 in the dayH3117 of vengeanceH5359.
He will not regardH5375+H6440 any ransomH3724; neither will he rest contentH14, though thou givest manyH7235 giftsH7810. {He will…: Heb. He will not accept the face of any ransom}
