Proverbs 6:10-20

¹⁰A little thou shalt sleep, a little thou shalt nap; a little thou shalt join together thine hands that thou sleep.

¹¹And then neediness, as a way-goer, shall come to thee; and poverty, as an armed man. Forsooth if thou art not slow, thy ripe corn shall come as a well; and neediness shall flee far from thee.

¹²A man apostate, is a man unprofit-able, he goeth with a wayward mouth;

¹³he beckoneth with eyes, he trampeth with the foot, he speaketh with the finger,

¹⁴by shrewd heart he imagineth evil, and in all time he soweth dissensions.

¹⁵His perdition shall come to him anon, and he shall be broken suddenly; and he shall no more have medicine.

¹⁶Six things there be, which the Lord hateth; and his soul curseth the seventh thing.

¹⁷High eyes, a tongue liar, that is, accustomable to deadly leasing, hands shedding out innocent blood,

¹⁸an heart imagining full wicked thoughts, feet swift to run into evil,

¹⁹a man bringing forth leasing, a false witness; and him that soweth discord among brethren.

²⁰My son, keep the commandments of thy father; and forsake thou not the law of thy mother.
