Proverbs - Chapter: 6


6:1	Mi sone, if thou hast bihiyt for thi freend; thou hast fastned thin hoond at a straunger.
6:2	Thou art boundun bi the wordis of thi mouth; and thou art takun with thin owne wordis.
6:3	Therfor, my sone, do thou that that Y seie, and delyuere thi silf; for thou hast fallun in to the hond of thi neiybore. Renne thou aboute, haste thou, reise thi freend;
6:4	yyue thou not sleep to thin iyen, nether thin iyeliddis nappe.
6:5	Be thou rauyschid as a doo fro the hond; and as a bridde fro aspiyngis of the foulere.
6:6	O! thou slowe man, go to the `amte, ether pissemyre; and biholde thou hise weies, and lerne thou wisdom.
6:7	Which whanne he hath no duyk, nethir comaundour, nether prince;
6:8	makith redi in somer mete to hym silf, and gaderith togidere in heruest that, that he schal ete.
6:9	Hou long schalt thou, slow man, slepe? whanne schalt thou rise fro thi sleep?
6:10	A litil thou schalt slepe, a litil thou schalt nappe; a litil thou schalt ioyne togidere thin hondis, that thou slepe.
6:11	And nedynesse, as a weigoere, schal come to thee; and pouert, as an armed man. Forsothe if thou art not slow, thi ripe corn schal come as a welle; and nedynesse schal fle fer fro thee.
6:12	A man apostata, a man vnprofitable, he goith with a weiward mouth;
6:13	he bekeneth with iyen, he trampith with the foot, he spekith with the fyngur,
6:14	bi schrewid herte he ymagyneth yuel, and in al tyme he sowith dissenciouns.
6:15	His perdicioun schal come to hym anoon, and he schal be brokun sodeynli; and he schal no more haue medecyn.
6:16	Sixe thingis ben, whyche the Lord hatith; and hise soule cursith the seuenthe thing.
6:17	Hiye iyen, a tunge liere, hondis schedinge out innocent blood,
6:18	an herte ymagynynge worste thouytis, feet swifte to renne in to yuel,
6:19	a man bringynge forth lesingis, a fals witnesse; and him that sowith discordis among britheren.
6:20	Mi sone, kepe the comaundementis of thi fadir; and forsake not the lawe of thi modir.
6:21	Bynde thou tho continueli in thin herte; and cumpasse `to thi throte.
6:22	Whanne thou goist, go tho with thee; whanne thou slepist, kepe tho thee; and thou wakynge speke with tho.
6:23	For the comaundement of God is a lanterne, and the lawe is liyt, and the blamyng of techyng is the weie of lijf;
6:24	`that the comaundementis kepe thee fro an yuel womman, and fro a flaterynge tunge of a straunge womman.
6:25	Thin herte coueite not the fairnesse of hir; nether be thou takun bi the signes of hir.
6:26	For the prijs of an hoore is vnnethe of o loof; but a womman takith the preciouse soule of a man.
6:27	Whether a man mai hide fier in his bosum, that hise clothis brenne not;
6:28	ethir go on colis, and hise feet be not brent?
6:29	So he that entrith to the wijf of his neiybore; schal not be cleene, whanne he hath touchid hir.
6:30	It is not greet synne, whanne a man stelith; for he stelith to fille an hungri soule.
6:31	And he takun schal yelde the seuenthe fold; and he schal yyue al the catel of his hous, and schal delyuere hym silf.
6:32	But he that is avouter; schal leese his soule, for the pouert of herte.
6:33	He gaderith filthe, and sclaundrith to hym silf; and his schenschip schal not be don awei.
6:34	For the feruent loue and strong veniaunce of the man schal not spare in the dai of veniaunce,
6:35	nether schal assente to the preieris of ony; nether schal take ful many yiftis for raunsum.


6:1	My sonne, if thou be surety for thy neighbour, and hast striken hands with the stranger,
6:2	Thou art snared with the wordes of thy mouth: thou art euen taken with the woordes of thine owne mouth.
6:3	Doe this nowe, my sonne, and deliuer thy selfe: seeing thou art come into the hande of thy neighbour, goe, and humble thy selfe, and sollicite thy friends.
6:4	Giue no sleepe to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
6:5	Deliuer thy selfe as a doe from the hande of the hunter, and as a birde from the hande of the fouler.
6:6	Goe to the pismire, O sluggarde: beholde her waies, and be wise.
6:7	For shee hauing no guide, gouernour, nor ruler,
6:8	Prepareth her meat in the sommer, and gathereth her foode in haruest.
6:9	Howe long wilt thou sleepe, O sluggarde? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleepe?
6:10	Yet a litle sleepe, a litle slumber, a litle folding of the hands to sleepe.
6:11	Therefore thy pouertie commeth as one that trauaileth by the way, and thy necessitie like an armed man.
6:12	The vnthriftie man and the wicked man walketh with a froward mouth.
6:13	He maketh a signe with his eyes: he signifieth with his feete: he instructeth with his fingers.
6:14	Lewde things are in his heart: he imagineth euill at all times, and raiseth vp contentions.
6:15	Therefore shall his destruction come speedily: hee shall be destroyed suddenly without recouerie.
6:16	These sixe things doeth the Lord hate: yea, his soule abhorreth seuen:
6:17	The hautie eyes, a lying tongue, and the hands that shed innocent blood,
6:18	An heart that imagineth wicked enterprises, feete that be swift in running to mischiefe,
6:19	A false witnesse that speaketh lyes, and him that rayseth vp contentions among brethren.
6:20	My sonne, keepe thy fathers commandement, and forsake not thy mothers instruction.
6:21	Binde them alway vpon thine heart, and tye them about thy necke.
6:22	It shall leade thee, when thou walkest: it shall watch for thee, when thou sleepest, and when thou wakest, it shall talke with thee.
6:23	For the commandement is a lanterne, and instruction a light: and corrections for instruction are the way of life,
6:24	To keepe thee from the wicked woman, and from ye flatterie of ye tongue of a strange woman.
6:25	Desire not her beautie in thine heart, neither let her take thee with her eye lids.
6:26	For because of the whorish woman a man is brought to a morsell of bread, and a woman wil hunt for the precious life of a man.
6:27	Can a man take fire in his bosome, and his clothes not be burnt?
6:28	Or can a man go vpon coales, and his feete not be burnt?
6:29	So he that goeth in to his neighbours wife, shall not be innocent, whosoeuer toucheth her.
6:30	Men do not despise a thiefe, when he stealeth, to satisfie his soule, because he is hungrie.
6:31	But if he be founde, he shall restore seuen folde, or he shall giue all the substance of his house.
6:32	But he that committeth adulterie with a woman, he is destitute of vnderstanding: he that doeth it, destroyeth his owne soule.
6:33	He shall finde a wounde and dishonour, and his reproch shall neuer be put away.
6:34	For ielousie is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
6:35	He cannot beare the sight of any raunsome: neither will he consent, though thou augment the giftes.
