13He blinketh with his eyes, he scrapeth with his feet, he pointeth with his fingers;
14Perverseness is in his heart, he contriveth evil at all times; he scattereth abroad discord.
15Therefore shall suddenly come his calamity: unawares shalt he be broken without a remedy.
16Six things there are which the Lord hateth; and seven are an abomination unto his spirit:
17Haughty eyes, a tongue of falsehood, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18A heart that contriveth plans of injustice, feet that hasten to run after evil,
19A false witness that eagerly uttereth lies, and him that scattereth abroad discord among brethren.
20Keep, O my son, the commandment of thy father, and reject not the teaching of thy mother:
21Bind them upon thy heart continually, tie them about thy throat.
22When thou walkest, it shall lead thee; when thou liest down, it shall watch over thee; and when thou art awake, it shall converse with thee.
23For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light; and the way of life are the admonitions of correction:
24To guard thee against a bad woman, from the flattery of an alien tongue.
25Covet not her beauty in thy heart, and let her not conquer thee with her eyelids.
26For by means of a harlot one is brought down to the last loaf of bread: and an adulterous woman will even hunt for the precious life,
