Top Verses Profile for Proverbs 6:14  

7 It has no commander, no overseer or ruler 8 Yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. 9 How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest – 11 And poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man. 12 Troublemakers and villains, who go about with corrupt mouths, 13 Who wink maliciously with their eyes, signal with their feet and motion with their fingers 14 Who plot evil with deceit in their hearts – they always stir up dissension. 15 Therefore disaster will overtake them in an instant; they will suddenly be destroyed – without remedy. 16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17 Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood 18 A heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil 19 A false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up dissension in the community. 20 My son, keep your father's command and do not forsake your mother's teaching. 21 Bind them always on your heart; fasten them around your neck. (NIV)

7 Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler 8 Provides her food in the summer and gathers her supplies in the harvest. 9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep? [Prov. 24:33, 34.] 10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down and sleep-- 11 So will your poverty come like a robber or one who travels [with slowly but surely approaching steps] and your want like an armed man [making you helpless]. [Prov. 10:4; 13:4; 20:4.] 12 A worthless person, a wicked man, is he who goes about with a perverse (contrary, wayward) mouth. 13 He winks with his eyes, he speaks by shuffling or tapping with his feet, he makes signs [to mislead and deceive] and teaches with his fingers. 14 Willful and contrary in his heart, he devises trouble, vexation, and evil continually; he lets loose discord and sows it. 15 Therefore upon him shall the crushing weight of calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken, and that without remedy. 16 These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him: 17 A proud look [the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others], a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [Ps. 120:2, 3.] 18 A heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil 19 A false witness who breathes out lies [even under oath], and he who sows discord among his brethren. 20 My son, keep your father's [God-given] commandment and forsake not the law of [God] your mother [taught you]. [Eph. 6:1-3.] 21 Bind them continually upon your heart and tie them about your neck. [Prov. 3:3; 7:3.] (AMP)

7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. 9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: 11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. 12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. 13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; 14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. 15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. 16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. 20 My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. (KJV)
