Proverbs 6:20 in Context — Proverbs 6
18 O coração que trama planos malignos, pés que se apressam a correr para o mal;
19 A falsa testemunha, que sopra mentiras; e o que semeia brigas entre irmãos.
20 Filho meu, guarda o mandamento de teu pai; e não abandones a lei de tua mãe.
21 Amarra-os continuamente em teu coração; e pendura-os ao teu pescoço.
22 Quando caminhares, [isto] te guiará; quando deitares, [isto] te guardará; quando acordares, [isto] falará contigo.
