Proverbs 6 : 3 (LXXEN)
My son, do what I command thee, and deliver thyself; for on thy friend’s account thou art come into the power of evil men: faint not, but stir up even thy friend for whom thou art become surety.
Proverbs 6 : 4 (LXXEN)
Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber with thine eyelids;
Proverbs 6 : 5 (LXXEN)
that thou mayest deliver thyself as a doe out of the toils, and as a bird out of a snare.
Proverbs 6 : 6 (LXXEN)
Go to the ant, O sluggard; and see, and emulate his ways, and become wiser than he.
Proverbs 6 : 7 (LXXEN)
For whereas he has no husbandry, nor any one to compel him, and is under no master,
Proverbs 6 : 8 (LXXEN)
he prepares food for himself in the summer, and lays by abundant store in harvest. (6:8AA) Or go to the bee, and learn how diligent she is, and how earnestly she is engaged in her work; 6:8BA) whose labours kings and private men use for health, and she is desired and respected by all: 6:8CA) though weak in Gr. strength body, she is advanced by honouring wisdom.
Proverbs 6 : 9 (LXXEN)
How long wilt thou lie, O sluggard? and when wilt thou awake out of sleep?
Proverbs 6 : 10 (LXXEN)
Thou sleepest a little, and thou restest a little, and thou slumberest a short time, and thou foldest thine arms over thy breast a little.
Proverbs 6 : 11 (LXXEN)
Then poverty comes upon thee as an evil traveller, and want as a swift courier: (6:11AA) but if thou be diligent, thine harvest shall arrive as a fountain, and poverty shall flee away as a bad courier.
Proverbs 6 : 12 (LXXEN)
A foolish man and a transgressor goes in ways that are not good.
Proverbs 6 : 13 (LXXEN)

Proverbs 6 : 15 (LXXEN)
Therefore his destruction shall come suddenly; overthrow and irretrievable ruin. *Comp. Heb.
Proverbs 6 : 16 (LXXEN)
For he rejoices in all things which God hates, and he is ruined by reason of impurity of soul.
Proverbs 6 : 17 (LXXEN)
The eye of the haughty, a tongue unjust, hands shedding the blood of the just;
Proverbs 6 : 18 (LXXEN)
and a heart devising evil thoughts, and feet hastening to do evil, —are hateful to God.
Proverbs 6 : 19 (LXXEN)
An unjust witness kindles falsehoods, and *Gr. sends forth judgements brings on quarrels between brethren.
Proverbs 6 : 20 (LXXEN)
My son, keep the laws of thy father, and reject not the ordinances of thy mother:
Proverbs 6 : 21 (LXXEN)
but bind them upon thy soul continually, and hang them as a chain about thy neck.
Proverbs 6 : 22 (LXXEN)
Whensoever thou walkest, lead this along and let it be with thee; that it may talk with thee when thou wakest.
Proverbs 6 : 23 (LXXEN)
For the commandment of the law is a lamp and a light; a way of life; reproof also and correction:
Proverbs 6 : 24 (LXXEN)
to keep thee continually from a married woman, and from the calumny of a strange tongue.
Proverbs 6 : 25 (LXXEN)
Let not the desire of beauty overcome thee, neither be thou caught by thine eyes, neither be captivated with her eyelids.

Proverbs 6 : 30 (LXXEN)

but if he should be taken, he shall repay sevenfold, and shall deliver himself by giving all his goods.
Proverbs 6 : 32 (LXXEN)
But the adulterer through want of sense procures destruction to his soul.
Proverbs 6 : 33 (LXXEN)
He endures both pain and disgrace, and his reproach shall never be wiped off.
