Proverbs 6:2-5
English Standard Version
2 if you are (A)snared in the words of your mouth,
caught in the words of your mouth,
3 then do this, my son, and save yourself,
for you have come into the hand of your neighbor:
go, hasten,[a] and (B)plead urgently with your neighbor.
4 (C)Give your eyes no sleep
and your eyelids no slumber;
5 save yourself like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter,[b]
(D)like a bird from the hand of the fowler.
