Proverbs 6:12-22

¹²A worthless wretch is the unrighteous man, Who walketh with a deceitful mouth;

¹³Who winketh with his eyes, Speaketh with his feet, And teacheth with his fingers.

¹⁴Fraud is in his heart; He deviseth mischief continually; He scattereth contentions.

¹⁵Therefore shall calamity come upon him suddenly; In a moment shall he be destroyed, and that without remedy;

¹⁶These six things doth the LORD hate; Yea, seven are an abomination to him:

¹⁷Lofty eyes, a false tongue, And hands which shed innocent blood;

¹⁸A heart that contriveth wicked devices; Feet that are swift in running to mischief,

¹⁹A false witness, that uttereth lies, And him that soweth discord among brethren.

²⁰Keep, O my son! the commandment of thy father, And forsake not the precepts of thy mother!

²¹Bind them continually to thy heart, Tie them around thy neck!

²²When thou goest forth, they shall guide thee; When thou sleepest, they shall watch over thee; And, when thou awakest, they shall talk with thee.
