lest you should meditate on the path of life, her tracks are movable; you cannot know them.

lest you give your honor to others and your years to the cruel;

Do not reprove a scorner, lest he hate you; give to a wise man, and he will love you.

Do not love 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 Jehovah see, and it displease Him, and He turn away His wrath from him.

Do not go forth quickly to fight, lest you know not what to do in the end of it, when your neighbor has put you to shame.

lest he who hears it put you to shame, and your evil report turn not away.

Have you found honey? Eat only as much as is enough 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 hate you.

Do not answer a fool according to his foolishness, lest you also be like him.

Do not add to His Words, lest He reprove you and you be found a liar.

lest I be full and deceive, and say, Who is Jehovah? Or lest I be poor, and steal, and violate the name of my God.

Do not accuse a servant to his master, lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.

lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
