Text -- Proverbs 6:11-35 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
6:11 and your poverty will come like a robber , and your need like an armed man .
6:12 A worthless and wicked person walks around saying perverse things;
6:13 he winks with his eyes , signals with his feet , and points with his fingers ;
6:14 he plots evil with perverse thoughts in his heart , he spreads contention at all times .
6:15 Therefore , his disaster will come suddenly ; in an instant he will be broken , and there will be no remedy .
6:16 There are six things that the Lord hates , even seven things that are an abomination to him :
6:17 haughty eyes , a lying tongue , and hands that shed innocent blood ,
6:18 a heart that devises wicked plans , feet that are swift to run to evil ,
6:19 a false witness who pours out lies , and a person who spreads discord among family members .
6:20 My child , guard the commands of your father and do not forsake the instruction of your mother .
6:21 Bind them on your heart continually ; fasten them around your neck .
6:22 When you walk about, they will guide you; when you lie down , they will watch over you; when you wake up , they will talk to you.
6:23 For the commandments are like a lamp , instruction is like a light , and rebukes of discipline are like the road leading to life ,
6:24 by keeping you from the evil woman , from the smooth tongue of the loose woman .
6:25 Do not lust in your heart for her beauty , and do not let her captivate you with her alluring eyes ;
6:26 for on account of a prostitute one is brought down to a loaf of bread , but the wife of another man preys on your precious life .
6:27 Can a man hold fire against his chest without burning his clothes ?
6:28 Can a man walk on hot coals without scorching his feet ?
6:29 So it is with the one who has sex with his neighbor’s wife ; no one who touches her will escape punishment .
6:30 People do not despise a thief when he steals to fulfill his need when he is hungry .
6:31 Yet if he is caught he must repay seven times over, he might even have to give all the wealth of his house .
6:32 A man who commits adultery with a woman lacks wisdom , whoever does it destroys his own life .
6:33 He will be beaten and despised , and his reproach will not be wiped away ;
6:34 for jealousy kindles a husband’s rage , and he will not show mercy when he takes revenge .
6:35 He will not consider any compensation ; he will not be willing , even if you multiply the compensation .
