Proverbs 6:2-4

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

² you have been snared by the words of your mouth –
trapped by the words from your mouth.
³ Do this, then, my son, and free yourself,
for you have put yourself in your neighbour’s power:
Go, humble yourself, and plead with your neighbour.
⁴ Don’t give sleep to your eyes
or slumber to your eyelids.^(A)
