Proverbs 5 : 1 (LITV)

My son, pay attention to my wisdom; stretch your ear to my understanding;

Proverbs 5 : 2 (LITV)

so that you may keep judgment, and your lips may keep knowledge.

Proverbs 5 : 3 (LITV)

For the lips of a strange woman drip honey, and her palate is sweeter than oil,

Proverbs 5 : 4 (LITV)

but afterwards, she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a sword of mouths;

Proverbs 5 : 5 (LITV)

her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell,

Proverbs 5 : 6 (LITV)

lest you should meditate on the path of life, her tracks are movable, you cannot know them.

Proverbs 5 : 7 (LITV)

Then hear me now, O sons, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.

Proverbs 5 : 8 (LITV)

Remove your ways far from her, and do not come near to the door of her house,

Proverbs 5 : 9 (LITV)

lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel;

Proverbs 5 : 10 (LITV)

that strangers not be filled with your strength, and your labors be in the house of an alien,

Proverbs 5 : 11 (LITV)

and you moan when your end comes, when your flesh and muscle are eaten away;

Proverbs 5 : 12 (LITV)

and say, How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised correction;

Proverbs 5 : 13 (LITV)

and I have not heard the voice of my teachers, nor stretched my ear to those instructing me.

Proverbs 5 : 14 (LITV)

I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.

Proverbs 5 : 15 (LITV)

Drink waters out of your own cistern, and running waters out of your own well.

Proverbs 5 : 16 (LITV)

Should your overflowing springs be scattered outside, like rivers of waters in the streets?

Proverbs 5 : 17 (LITV)

Let them be only your own, and not to strangers with you;

Proverbs 5 : 18 (LITV)

let your fountains be blessed, and rejoice with the wife of your youth;

Proverbs 5 : 19 (LITV)

she is a loving deer, a graceful doe; let her breasts satisfy you every time, and always be ravished in her love.

Proverbs 5 : 20 (LITV)

And my son, why will you be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace a foreigner's bosom?

Proverbs 5 : 21 (LITV)

For the ways of man are before the eyes of Jehovah, and He ponders all his tracks.

Proverbs 5 : 22 (LITV)

His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.

Proverbs 5 : 23 (LITV)

He shall die without instruction, and in the greatness of his foolishness he shall go astray.
