    Proverbs 5
    • 1   My son! to my wisdom give attention, To mine understanding incline thine ear,
    • 2   To observe thoughtfulness, And knowledge do thy lips keep.
    • 3   For the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And smoother than oil is her mouth,
    • 4   And her latter end is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a sword with mouths.
    • 5   Her feet are going down to death, Sheol do her steps take hold of.
    • 6   The path of life--lest thou ponder, Moved have her paths--thou knowest not.
    • 7   And now, ye sons, hearken to me, And turn not from sayings of my mouth.
    • 8   Keep far from off her thy way, And come not near unto the opening of her house,
    • 9   Lest thou give to others thy honour, And thy years to the fierce,
    • 10   Lest strangers be filled with thy power, And thy labours in the house of a stranger,
    • 11   And thou hast howled in thy latter end, In the consumption of thy flesh and thy food,
    • 12   And hast said, `How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,
    • 13   And I have not hearkened to the voice of my directors, And to my teachers have not inclined mine ear.
    • 14   As a little thing I have been all evil, In the midst of an assembly and a company.
    • 15   Drink waters out of thine own cistern, Even flowing ones out of thine own well.
    • 16   Let thy fountains be scattered abroad, In broad places rivulets of waters.
    • 17   Let them be to thee for thyself, And not to strangers with thee.
    • 18   Let thy fountain be blessed, And rejoice because of the wife of thy youth,
    • 19   A hind of loves, and a roe of grace! Let her loves satisfy thee at all times, In her love magnify thyself continually.
    • 20   And why dost thou magnify thyself, My son, with a stranger? And embrace the bosom of a strange woman?
    • 21   For over-against the eyes of Jehovah are the ways of each, And all his paths He is pondering.
    • 22   His own iniquities do capture the wicked, And with the ropes of his sin he is holden.
    • 23   He dieth without instruction, And in the abundance of his folly magnifieth himself!
