Proverbs 6:15-22

¹⁵Therefore his destruction shall come suddenly; Overthrow and irretrievable ruin.

¹⁶For he rejoices in all things which God hates, And he is ruined by reason of impurity of soul.

¹⁷The eye of the haughty, a tongue unjust, Hands shedding the blood of the just;

¹⁸And a heart devising evil thoughts, And feet hastening to do evil—are hateful to God.

¹⁹An unjust witness kindles falsehoods, And brings on quarrels between brethren.

²⁰My son, keep the laws of thy father, And reject not the ordinances of thy mother:

²¹But bind them upon thy soul continually, And hang them as a chain about thy neck.

²²Whensoever thou walkest, lead this along and let it be with thee; And when thou sleepest let it keep thee; That it may talk with thee when thou wakest.
