Lest you should ponder the path of life, her ways are unstable, that you can not know them.

Lest you give your honor unto others, and your years unto the merciless:

Lest strangers be filled with your wealth; and your labors go to the house of a foreigner;

Reprove not a scoffer, lest he hate you: rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.

Love not sleep, lest you come to poverty; open your eyes, and you shall be satisfied with bread.

Lest you learn his ways, and get a snare to your soul.

Lest the LORD sees it, and it displeases him, and he turns away his wrath from him.

Go not forth hastily to court, lest you know not what to do in the end, when your neighbor has put you to shame.

Lest he that hears it put you to shame, and the evil report turns not away.

Have you found honey? eat only as much as is sufficient for you, lest you be filled with it, and vomit it.

Withdraw your foot from your neighbor's house; lest he be weary of you, and so hate you.

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

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

Add not unto his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.

Lest I be full, and deny you, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.

Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice of any of the afflicted.
