Proverbs 6:9-19

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

9 How long, lazy person, will you lie down? When will you rise from your sleep?

10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the arms to lie down—

11 and poverty will come on you like a prowler, destitution like a warrior.

12 Worthless people and guilty people go around with crooked talk.

13 They wink their eyes, gesture with their feet, and point with their fingers.

14 Their hearts are corrupt and determined to do evil; they create controversies all the time.

15 Therefore, sudden disaster will come upon them; they will be quickly broken beyond healing.

16 There are six things that the LORD hates, seven things detestable to him:

17 snobbish eyes, a lying tongue, hands that spill innocent blood,

18 a heart set on wicked plans, feet that run quickly to evil,

19 a false witness who breathes lies, and one who causes conflicts among relatives.

New International Version NIV

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 A troublemaker and a villain, who goes about with a corrupt mouth,

13 who winks maliciously with his eye, signals with his feet and motions with his fingers,

14 who plots evil with deceit in his heart— he always stirs up conflict.

15 Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant; he 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 conflict in the community.
