Welcome to the Daily Audio Proverb.

I'm Brian Harden from Daily Audio Bible.

It's great to be here with you today as we dive deep into the ultimate book of wisdom.

Today's the sixth of the month.

We'll read the sixth chapter of the book of Proverbs today from the easy-to-read version.

Okay. of the book of Proverbs today from the easy-to-read version. My son, don't make yourself responsible for the debts of others.

Don't make such deals with friends or strangers. If you do, your words will trap you.

You will be under the power of other people.

So you must go and free yourself.

Beg them to free you from that debt.

Don't wait or rest or sleep.

Escape from that trap like a deer running from a hunter.

Free yourself like a bird flying from a trap.

You lazy people.

You should watch what the ants do and learn from them.

Ants have no ruler, no boss, and no leader.

But in the summer, ants gather all of their food and save it.

So when winter comes, there is plenty to eat.

You lazy people.

How long are you going to lie there?

When will you get up?

You say, I need a rest.
