- 1
- My son, be attentive to my wisdom; incline your ear to my understanding,
- 2
- that you may keep discretion, and your lips may guard knowledge.
- 3
- For the lips of a forbidden woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil,
- 4
- but in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
- 5
- Her feet go down to death; her steps follow the path to Sheol;
- 6
- she does not ponder the path of life; her ways wander, and she does not know it.
- 7
- And now, O sons, listen to me, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
- 8
- Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house,
- 9
- lest you give your honor to others and your years to the merciless,
- 10
- lest strangers take their fill of your strength, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner,
- 11
- and at the end of your life you groan, when your flesh and body are consumed,
- 12
- and you say, “How I hated discipline, and my heart despised reproof!
- 13
- I did not listen to the voice of my teachers or incline my ear to my instructors.
- 14
- I am at the brink of utter ruin in the assembled congregation.”
- 15
- Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well.
- 16
- Should your springs be scattered abroad, streams of water in the streets?
- 17
- Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.
- 18
- Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
- 19
- a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love.
- 20
- Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress?
- 21
- For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and he ponders all his paths.
- 22
- The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.
- 23
- He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.
