Proverbs 5 Verses
1
|
My son, attend unto my wisdom, [and] bow thine ear to my understanding: |
2
|
That thou mayest regard discretion, and [that] thy lips may keep knowledge. |
3
|
For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] an honeycomb, and her mouth [is] smoother than oil: |
4
|
But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword. |
5
|
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. |
6
|
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, [that] thou canst not know [them. ] |
7
|
Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. |
8
|
Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: |
9
|
Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: |
10
|
Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours [be] in the house of a stranger; |
11
|
And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, |
12
|
And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; |
13
|
And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! |
14
|
I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. |
15
|
Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. |
16
|
Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, [and] rivers of waters in the streets. |
17
|
Let them be only thine own, and not strangers’ with thee. |
18
|
Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. |
19
|
[Let her be as] the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. |
20
|
And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger? |
21
|
For the ways of man [are] before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings. |
22
|
His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. |
23
|
He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray. |
