Proverbs 6:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³ do this, then, my child, and save yourself,
    for you have come into the palm of your neighbor’s hand:^[a]
    Go, humble yourself, plead with your neighbor.
⁴ Do not give sleep to your eyes,
    or slumber to your eyelids.
⁵ Save yourself like a gazelle from a hand,
    or like a bird from the hand of a fowler.
