Proverbs 6:6 in context

Proverbs 6:3–9

3

Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself,

since you have come into the hand of your neighbor.

Go, humble yourself.

Press your plea with your neighbor.

4

Give no sleep to your eyes,

nor slumber to your eyelids.

Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter,

like a bird from the snare of the fowler.

Selected verse

Go to the ant, you sluggard.

Consider her ways, and be wise;

which having no chief, overseer, or ruler,

8

provides her bread in the summer,

and gathers her food in the harvest.

9

How long will you sleep, sluggard?

When will you arise out of your sleep?
