Proverbs 6:13-25 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

13. Winking with his eyes, speaking with his feet, Directing with his fingers,

14. Frowardness [is] in his heart, devising evil at all times, Contentions he sendeth forth.

15. Therefore suddenly cometh his calamity, Instantly he is broken--and no healing.

16. These six hath Jehovah hated, Yea, seven [are] abominations to His soul.

17. Eyes high--tongues false--And hands shedding innocent blood--

18. A heart devising thoughts of vanity--Feet hasting to run to evil--

19. A false witness [who] doth breathe out lies--And one sending forth contentions between brethren.

20. Keep, my son, the command of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother.

21. Bind them on thy heart continually, Tie them on thy neck.

22. In thy going up and down, it leadeth thee, In thy lying down, it watcheth over thee, And thou hast awaked--it talketh [with] thee.

23. For a lamp [is] the command, And the law a light, And a way of life [are] reproofs of instruction,

24. To preserve thee from an evil woman, From the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

25. Desire not her beauty in thy heart, And let her not take thee with her eyelids.
