20:005:022 His own iniquities shall take the wicked
himself, and he shall
be
holden with the cords of his sins.
20:005:023 He shall die without instruction; and in
the greatness of his
folly
he shall go astray.
20:006:001 My son, if thou be surety for thy friend,
if thou hast
stricken
thy hand with a stranger,
20:006:002 Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth,
thou art taken
with
the words of thy mouth.
20:006:003 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.
20:006:004 Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
20:006:005 Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand
of the hunter, and as a
bird
from the hand of the fowler.
20:006:006 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
20:006:007 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
20:006:008 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth
her food in
the
harvest.
20:006:009 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when
wilt thou arise out
of
thy sleep?
20:006:010 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a
little folding of the
hands
to sleep:
20:006:011 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,
and thy want
as
an armed man.
20:006:012 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.
20:006:013 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with
his feet, he
teacheth
with his fingers;
20:006:014 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth
mischief continually;
he
soweth discord.
20:006:015 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly;
suddenly shall he
be
broken without remedy.
20:006:016 These six things doth the lord hate:
yea, seven are an
abomination
unto him:
20:006:017 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands
that shed innocent
blood,
20:006:018 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations,
feet that be swift
in
running to mischief,
20:006:019 A false witness that speaketh lies, and
he that soweth discord
among
brethren.
20:006:020 My son, keep thy father’s commandment,
and forsake not the law
of
thy mother:
20:006:021 Bind them continually upon thine heart,
and tie them about thy
neck.
20:006:022 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when
thou sleepest, it
shall
keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with
thee.
20:006:023 For the commandment is a lamp; and the
law is light; and
reproofs
of instruction are the way of life:
