lest thou give thine honor to others, and thy years to the cruel,

lest strangers be filled with thy strength, and thy labors [be] in the house of an alien,

Reprove not a scoffer, lest he hate thee. Reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.

Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty. Open thine eyes, [and] thou shall be satisfied with bread.

lest thou learn this ways, and get a snare to thy soul.

lest LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.

lest he who hears it revile thee, and thine infamy turn not away.

Have thou found honey? Eat as much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled with it, and vomit it.

Let thy foot be seldom in thy neighbor's house, lest he be weary of thee, and hate thee.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like to him.

Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Add thou not to his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

lest I be full, and deny [thee], and say, Who is LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and use the name of my God profanely.

Slander not a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.

Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice [due] to any who is afflicted.
