1My son, if you have put up 6:1 See Job 17:3security for your neighbor,

have 6:1 See Job 17:3given your pledge for a stranger,

2if you are 6:2 [ch. 5:22]snared in the words of your mouth,

caught in the words of your mouth,

3then do this, my son, and save yourself,

for you have come into the hand of your neighbor:

go, hasten,6:3 Or humble yourself and 6:3 [Luke 11:8; 18:5]plead urgently with your neighbor.

and 6:8 [ch. 10:5]gathers her food in harvest.

96:9 [Jonah 1:6] How long will you lie there, 6:9 [See ver. 6above]O sluggard?

When will you arise from your sleep?

106:10 ch. 24:33A little sleep, a little slumber,

6:10 Eccles. 4:5a little 6:10 ch. 24:33folding of the hands to rest,

116:11 ch. 24:34and poverty will come upon you like a robber,

and want like an armed man.

126:12 ch. 16:27A worthless person, a wicked man,

goes about with 6:12 ch. 4:24crooked speech,

136:13 ch. 10:10; Ps. 35:19winks with his eyes, signals6:13 Hebrew scrapes with his feet,

points with his finger,

14with 6:14 See ch. 2:12perverted heart 6:14 [Mic. 2:1]; See ch. 3:29devises evil,

continually 6:14 [ch. 16:28]sowing discord;

15therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly;

6:15 Isa. 30:13, 14; Jer. 19:11in a moment he will be broken 6:15 ch. 29:1; 2 Chr. 36:16beyond healing.

and 6:17 Deut. 19:10; Isa. 1:15; 59:3, 7hands that shed innocent blood,

186:18 Gen. 6:5a heart that devises wicked plans,

6:18 See ch. 1:16feet that make haste to run to evil,

196:19 See Ps. 27:12a false witness who 6:19 ch. 12:17; 14:5, 25; 19:5, 9breathes out lies,

and one who 6:19 [See ver. 14above]sows discord among brothers.

Warnings Against Adultery

206:20 See ch. 1:8My son, keep your father’s commandment,

6:20 See ch. 1:8and forsake not your mother’s teaching.

216:21 See ch. 3:3Bind them on your heart always;

6:21 [Job 31:36]tie them around your neck.

226:22 See ch. 3:23, 24When you walk, they6:22 Hebrew it; three times in this verse will lead you;

6:22 See ch. 3:23, 24when you lie down, they will 6:22 ch. 2:11watch over you;

and when you awake, they will talk with you.

23For the commandment is 6:23 Ps. 119:105; [Ps. 13:3] a lamp and the teaching a light,

and the 6:23 [ch. 10:17]reproofs of discipline are the way of life,

24to preserve you from the evil woman,6:24 Revocalization (compare Septuagint) yields from the wife of a neighbor

from the smooth tongue of 6:24 See ch. 2:16the adulteress.6:24 Hebrew the foreign woman

256:25 [Matt. 5:28] Do not desire her beauty in your heart,

and do not let her capture you with her 6:25 [2 Kgs. 9:30]eyelashes;

26for 6:26 [ch. 29:3] the price of a prostitute is only 6:26 ch. 28:21; 1 Sam. 2:36a loaf of bread,6:26 Or (compare Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate) for a prostitute leaves a man with nothing but a loaf of bread

but a married woman6:26 Hebrew a man’s wife6:26 Ezek. 13:18hunts down a precious life.

27Can a man carry 6:27 Job 31:12fire next to his 6:27 Ps. 79:12chest

and his clothes not be burned?

28Or can one 6:28 Isa. 43:2walk on hot coals

and his feet not be scorched?

29So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;

none who touches her 6:29 ch. 16:5will go unpunished.

30People do not despise a thief if he steals

to 6:30 Job 38:39satisfy his appetite when he is hungry,

31but 6:31 [Ex. 22:4] if he is caught, he will pay 6:31 See Ps. 79:12sevenfold;

he will give all the goods of his house.

32He who commits adultery lacks sense;

he who does it destroys himself.

33He will get wounds and dishonor,

and his disgrace will not be wiped away.

34For 6:34 ch. 27:4; Song 8:6jealousy makes a man furious,

and he will not spare when 6:34 [Lev. 20:10]he takes revenge.

35He will accept no compensation;

he will refuse though you multiply gifts.
