Proverbs 6 (KJV)   My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast 
stricken thy hand with a stranger, {2} Thou art snared with the words of thy 
mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. {3} Do this now, my son, 
and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, 
humble thyself, and make sure thy friend. {4} Give not sleep to thine eyes, 
nor slumber to thine eyelids. {5} Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of 
the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler. {6} Go to the ant, thou 
sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: {7} Which having no guide, overseer, 
or ruler, {8} Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the 
harvest. {9} How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of 
thy sleep? {10} Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the 
hands to sleep: {11} So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy 
want as an armed man. {12} A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a 
froward mouth. {13} He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he 
teacheth with his fingers; {14} Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth 
mischief continually; he soweth discord. {15} Therefore shall his calamity 
come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. {16} These six 
things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: {17} A 
proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, {18} An heart 
that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 
{19} A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among 
brethren. {20} My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law 
of thy mother: {21} Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about 
thy neck. {22} When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it 
shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. {23} For the 
commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are 
the way of life: {24} To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of 
the tongue of a strange woman. {25} Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; 
neither let her take thee with her eyelids. {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. {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 that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be 
innocent. {30} Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul 
when he is hungry; {31} But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he 
shall give all the substance of his house. {32} But whoso committeth adultery 
with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. 
{33} A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped 
away. {34} For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in 
the day of vengeance. {35} He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest 
content, though thou givest many gifts.
