1-My son, if you have become surety for your neighbor, have given your pledge for a stranger;
2-if you are snared in the utterance of your lips, caught in the words of your mouth;
3-then do this, my son, and save yourself, for you have come into your neighbor’s power: go, hasten, and importune your neighbor.
4-Give your eyes no sleep and your eyelids on slumber;
5-save yourself like a gazelle from the hunter, like a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6-Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.
7-Without having any chief, officer or ruler,
8-she prepares her food in summer, and gathers her sustenance in harvest.
9-How long will you lie there, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep?
10-A little sleep, a litter slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
11-and poverty will come upon you like a vagabond, and want like an armed man.
12-A worthless person, a wicked man, goes about with crooked speech,
13-winks with his eyes, scrapes with his feet, points with his finger,
14-with perverted heart devises evil, continually sowing discord;
15-therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly; in a moment he will be broken beyond healing.
16-There are six things which the Lord hates, seven which are an abomination to him:
17-haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18-a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,
19-a false witness who breathes out lies, and a man who sows discord among brothers.
20-My son keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not your mother’s teaching.
21-Bind them upon your heart always; tie them about your neck.
22-When you walk they will lead you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk with you.
23-For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life,
24-to preserve you from the evil woman, form the smooth tongue of the adventuress.
25-Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;
26-for a harlot may be hired for a loaf of bread, but an adulteress stalks a man’s very life.
27-Can a man carry fire in his bosom and his clothes not be burned?
28-Or can one walk upon hot coals and his feet not be scorched?
29-So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife; none who touches her will go unpunished.
30-Do not men despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry?
31-And if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold; he will give all the goods of his house.
32-He who commits adultery has no sense he who does it destroys himself.
33-Wounds an dishonor will he get, and his disgrace will not be wiped away.
34-For jealousy makes a man furious, and he will not spare when he takes revenge.
35-He will accept no compensation, nor be appeased though you multiply gifts.
