Proverbs 6:4

Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
] Until the above things are done; which denotes of what consequence and importance they are; and that persons in such circumstances should not be careless, dilatory, and unconcerned; but should use great diligence, and leave no stone unturned, or method untried, to extricate themselves; see ( Psalms 132:4 ) .

Proverbs 6:4 In-Context

2 you have been snared by the words of your mouth, caught by the words of your own mouth.

3 Do this now, my son, and extricate yourself, since you put yourself in your friend's power: go, humble yourself, and pester your friend;

4 give your eyes no sleep, give your eyelids no rest;

5 break free, like a gazelle from the [hunter's] trap, like a bird from the grip of the fowler.

6 Go to the ant, you lazybones! Consider its ways, and be wise.
