Proverbs Chapter 6

1 My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

Prov 11:15  He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hateth suretiship is sure.

2 Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.

3 Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend.

4 Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

Psalm 132:4  I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

5 Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

Job 12:7  But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

Prov 24:33  Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

Prov 10:4  He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

Job 15:12  Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,

Proverbs 10:10  He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall.

14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

Mic 2:1  Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.

Prov 6:19  A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

Jer 19:11  And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.

2 Chron 36:16  But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was no remedy.

16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

Psalms 101:5  Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

Psalms 120:2-3 
2  Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?

Isaiah 1:15  And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

Gen 6:5  And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

Isaiah 59:7  Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.

19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Psalms 27:12  Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Prov 6:14  Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

20 My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

Eph 6:1  Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.

21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

Prov 3:3  Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

Prov
3:23  Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.
2:11  Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:

24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

Prov 2:16  To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;

25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

Matthew 5:28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

Prov 29:3  Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.

Gen 39:14  That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:

Ezek 13:18  And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?

27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

28 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

29 So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.

30 Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;

31 But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.

Exodus 22:1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.

32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

Prov 7:7  And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

33 A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.

34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

35 He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
