John Gill Commentary Proverbs 6:4

"Give not sleep to thine eyes, Nor slumber to thine eyelids;" — Proverbs 6:4 (ASV)

Give not sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids .
] Until the above things are done; which denotes of what consequence and importance they are; and that persons in such circumstances should not be careless, dilatory, and unconcerned; but should use great diligence, and leave no stone unturned, or method untried, to extricate themselves; see (Psalms 132:4) .
