Proverbs 5:3-15

VIN(i) 3 For the lips of an adulteress 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 lead straight to Sheol. 6 She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it. 7 Now, children, listen to me. Do not turn away from what I am saying. 8 Keep far away from her. Do not go near the door of her house. 9 lest you give your honor to others and your years to the cruel; 10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man's house. 11 and you groan at your end, when your flesh and body are consumed, 12 And you say, How I have hated discipline, And my heart has spurned correction!" 13 I did not obey my teachers and did not listen to my instructors. 14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, in the midst of the gathered assembly." 15 Drink water from your own cistern. Drink running water from your own well.
