Proverbs 6:5
King James VersionSource notes
“Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.”
Context
2Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.
3Do this now, my son, deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend.
4Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
5Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
7Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
8Provideth her meat in the summer, gathereth her food in the harvest.
