13. They wink their eyes, gesture with their feet,and point with their fingers.
14. Their hearts are corrupt and determined to do evil;they create controversies all the time.
15. Therefore, sudden disaster will come upon them;they will be quickly broken beyond healing.
16. There are six things that the Lord hates,seven things detestable to him:
17. snobbish eyes,a lying tongue,hands that spill innocent blood,
18. a heart set on wicked plans,feet that run quickly to evil,
19. a false witness who breathes lies,and one who causes conflicts among relatives.
20. My son, keep your father’s command;don’t abandon your mother’s instruction.
21. Bind them on your heart for all time;fasten them around your neck.
22. When you walk around, they will lead you;when you lie down, they will protect you;when you awake, they will occupy your attention.
23. The commandment is a lamp and instruction a light;corrective teaching is the path of life.
24. They guard you from the evil woman,from the flattering tongue of the foreign woman.
