7It has no commander, officer, or ruler,
8yet it prepares its food in the summer and during the harvest it stores up what it will eat.
9How long will you sleep, you lazy person? When will you rise from your sleep?
10“A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest”—
11and your poverty will come like a robber and your needs like an armed soldier.
12A worthless person—a wicked man— lives by the crookedness of his speech,
13winking his eyes, making signals with his feet and pointing with his fingers.
14He plots evil with deceit in his heart; he always stirs up discord.
15Therefore his disaster will overtake him in an instant; in a moment he will be broken beyond healing.
16There are six things that Yahweh hates, seven that are disgusting to him.
17The eyes of a proud person, a tongue that lies, hands that shed the blood of innocent people,
18a heart that invents wicked schemes, feet that quickly run to do evil,
19a witness who breathes out lies and one who sows discord among brothers.
20My son, obey the command of your father and do not forsake the teaching of your mother.
21Always bind them on your heart; tie them about your neck.
