Proverbs 6:11-18 Modern English Version (MEV)

11. so will your poverty come upon you like a stalker,and your need as an armed man.

12. A wayward person, a wicked man,walks with a perverse mouth.

13. He winks with his eyes,he signals with his feet,he motions with his fingers;

14. perversity is in his heart,he devises mischief continually, he sows discord.

15. Therefore his calamity will come suddenly;in a moment he will be broken without remedy.

16. These six things the Lord hates,yes, seven are an abomination to him:

17. a proud look,a lying tongue,and hands that shed innocent blood,

18. a heart that devises wicked imaginations,feet that are swift in running to mischief,
