Proverbs 6:3
Do this then, my son, and deliver yourself; Since you have come into the hand of your neighbor, Go, humble yourself, and importune your neighbor.
Proverbs 6:4
Give no sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your eyelids;
Proverbs 6:5
Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hunter's hand And like a bird from the hand of the fowler.

Proverbs 6:18
A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that run rapidly to evil,
Proverbs 6:19

Proverbs 6:20
