Thomson(i) 3 for honey droppeth from the lips of a harlot, which for a while pleaseth thy palate; 4 but in the end thou wilt find it bitterer than gall, and sharper than a two edged sword. 5 For the feet of folly lead them, who indulge themselves with her, down with death to the mansion of the dead. Her steps indeed are not established, 6 for she walketh not in the ways of life. Her paths are slippery and not easily known. 7 Now therefore, my son, hearken to me and slight not my words. 8 Remove thy way far from her, go not near the doors of her house; 9 That thou mayst not give thy life to others, and thy substance to the cruel: 10 that strangers may not be filled with thy wealth, and thy labours go into the houses of strangers, 11 and thou at last be grieved. When the flesh of thy body is consumed, 12 then thou wilt say, "How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof! 13 I hearkened not to the voice of him who instructed me and taught me; nor have I inclined mine ear. 14 I have been almost in all evil, in the midst of the assembly and congregation." 15 Drink water from thine own vessels, and from the wells of thine own fountain. 16 Let not the waters from thy fountain over flow for thee; but let thy waters run in thine own streets. 17 Let them be for thyself only, and let no stranger partake with thee. 18 Let thy fountain of water be appropriate to thyself; and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. 19 Let thy loving hind and graceful fawn converse with thee; and let her be accounted peculiarly thine, and be with thee on all occasions. For ravished with her love thou wilt become a numerous family. 20 Be not devoted to a strange woman, nor embraced in the arms of one not thine own.
Webster(i) 3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as a honey-comb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: 4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. 6 Lest thou shouldst ponder the path of life, her ways are movable, 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 thy honor to others, and thy years to the cruel: 10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labors 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 my 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 thy own cistern, and running waters out of thy own well. 16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. 17 Let them be only thy own, and not for 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?

Rotherham(i) 3 For, with sweet droppings, drip the lips of her that is a stranger, and, smoother than oil, is her mouth; 4 But, the latter end of her, is bitter as wormwood, sharp, as a two–edged sword! 5 Her feet, are going down to death,––on hades, will her steps take firm hold. 6 Lest, the path of life, she should ponder, her tracks have wandered she knoweth not [whither]. 7 Now, therefore, ye sons, hearken unto me, and do not turn away from the sayings of my mouth. 8 Keep far from her thy way, and do not go near the opening of her house: 9 Lest thou give, to other men, thy vigour, and thy years, to him that is cruel: 10 Lest strange men, be well fed, by thy strength, and, thy toils, be in the house of the alien. 11 So shalt thou grieve in thy latter end, in the failing of thy flesh and of thy healthy condition; 12 And thou shalt say––How I hated correction! and, reproof, my heart disdained; 13 Neither hearkened I to the voice of my teachers, nor, to my instructors, inclined I mine ear: 14 Soon was I in all evil, in the midst of convocation and assembly.
15 Drink thou water out of thine own cistern, and flowing streams out of the midst of thine own well. 16 Let not thy fountains, flow over, abroad, in the streets, dividings of waters: 17 Let them be for thyself, alone, and not for strangers with thee. 18 Let thy well–spring be blessed,––and get thy joy from the wife of thy youth:–– 19 A loving hind! a graceful doe! let, her bosom, content thee at all times, and, in her love, mayst thou stray evermore. 20 Wherefore, then, shouldst thou stray, my son, with a strange woman? or embrace the bosom of a woman unknown?
CLV(i) 3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as the honeycomb, And the words of her palate are slicker than oil." 4 Yet the aftereffect from her is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two-edged sword." 5 Her feet are descending to death; To the unseen her steps hold firm. 6 Lest you should ponder the path of life, Her routes rove about, yet you know not where." 7 So now, my sons, hearken to me, And do not withdraw from the sayings of my mouth." 8 Keep your way far from her; Do not go near to the portal of her house, 9 Lest you should give your splendor to others And your years to the cruel one, 10 Lest aliens should surfeit themselves on your vigor And on your grievous labors in the house of a foreigner, 11 And you have anguish in your latter days When your flesh and your brawn are exhausted, 12 And you say, How I have hated discipline, And my heart has spurned correction!" 13 I have not hearkened to the voice of those directing my instruction, And to those teaching me I have not stretched out my ear;" 14 Soon I came to be in entire peril In the midst of the assembly and the congregation. 15 Drink water from your own cistern, And the flowings from the midst of your own well;" 16 Should your springs scatter forth in the streets, Your rillets of water in the public squares? 17 Let them be yours, for you alone, And not for aliens along with you." 18 May your fountain become blessed; Rejoice in the wife of your youth, 19 A loving hind and a graceful ibex; May her affections satisfy you in every season; May you be intoxicated by her love continually. 20 Why should you be intoxicated, my son, by a strange woman And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?

CAB(i) 3 for honey drops from the lips of a harlot, who for a season pleases your palate; 4 but afterwards you will find her more bitter than gall, and sharper than a two-edged sword. 5 For the feet of folly lead those who deal with her down to the grave with death, and her steps are not established. 6 For she goes not upon the paths of life; but her ways are slippery, and not easily known. 7 Now then my son, hear me, and make not my words of no effect. 8 Remove your way far from her; draw not near to the doors of her house: 9 lest you give away your life to others, and your substance to the merciless; 10 lest strangers be filled with your strength, and your labors come into the houses of strangers; 11 And you repent at last, when the flesh of your body is consumed, 12 and you shall say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart avoided reproofs! 13 I heard not the voice of him that instructed me, and taught me, neither did I incline my ear. 14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. 15 Drink waters out of your own vessels, and out of your own springing wells. 16 Let not waters out of your fountain be spilled by you, but let your waters go into your streets. 17 Let them be yours alone, and let no stranger partake with you. 18 Let your fountain of water be truly your own, and rejoice with the wife of your youth. 19 Let your loving deer and your graceful colt company with you, and let her be considered your own, and be with you at all times, for ravished with her love you shall be greatly increased. 20 Be not intimate with a strange woman, neither fold yourself in the arms of a woman not your own.

NSB(i) 3 The lips of an immoral woman drip as a honeycomb. Her mouth 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 take hold of the grave. 6 She does not ponder the path of life. Her unstable ways she does not know. 7 Hear me now my son. Do not depart from the words of my mouth. 8 Keep far away from her. Do not go near the door of her house. 9 You will give your honor (majesty) to others and your years to the cruel one. 10 Strangers will be filled with your financial strength. Strangers will benefit from your hard work. 11 You mourn at last, when your flesh and your body are consumed. 12 You say: »How I have hated instruction! My heart despised reproof. 13 »I did not obey the voice of my teachers. I did not listen to my instructors! 14 »I was very near total ruin in the midst of the congregation.« 15 Drink water from your own cistern. Drink running water from your own well. 16 Should your waters overflow in the streets, like streams of water in public places? 17 Let them be yours alone. Do not share with strangers. 18 Let your fountain be blessed. Rejoice with the wife of your youth. 19 She is like a loving deer and a graceful doe. Let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Always be delighted with her love. 20 Why will you be intimate with an immoral woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
ISV(i) 3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil. 4 But in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a double-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead to Sheol. 6 You aren’t thinking about where her life is headed; her steps wander, but you do not realize it. 7 Now, children, listen to me. Don’t turn away from what I am saying. 8 Keep far away from her, and don’t go near the entrance to her house, 9 so that you don’t give your honor to others, and waste your best years; 10 so that strangers don’t enrich themselves at your expense, and your work won’t end up the possession of foreigners. 11 You will cry out in anguish when your end comes, when your flesh and body are consumed, 12 and you will say, “How I hated instruction, and my heart rejected correction! 13 I did not obey my teachers and did not listen to my instructors. 14 Now I am at the point of utter disaster in the assembly and in the congregation.”
15 The Delights of Marital FaithfulnessDrink water from your own cistern, and fresh water from your own well. 16 Should your springs flow outside, or streams of water in the street? 17 They should be for you alone and not for strangers who are with you. 18 Let your fountain be blessed and enjoy the wife of your youth. 19 Like a loving deer, a beautiful doe, let her breasts satisfy you all the time. Be constantly intoxicated by her love. 20 Why should you be intoxicated by an adulteress, my son, and embrace the bosom of a foreign woman?
LEB(i) 3 For the lips of the strange woman will drip honey, and smoother than oil is her mouth.* 4 But her end is bitter as the wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold of Sheol.* 6 She does not observe* the path of life; her ways wander, and she does not know it. 7 Now, O children, listen to me; do not depart from the sayings of my mouth. 8 Keep your paths far from her, and do not go near to the door of her house, 9 lest you give your honor to the 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 you groan at your end, when your flesh and body are consumed, 12 and say "How I hated discipline, and I despised reproof!" 13 and "I did not listen to the voice of my teachers, and I did not incline my ear to my instructors! 14 I was almost at utter* ruin* in the midst of the assembly and congregation." 15 Drink water from your own cistern and flowing waters from inside your own well. 16 Shall your springs be scattered outward? In the streets, shall there be streams of water? 17 May they be yours alone, and not for strangers who are with you. 18 May your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife* of your youth. 19 She is a deer of love and a doe of grace; may her breasts satisfy you ⌊always⌋;* by her love may you be intoxicated continually. 20 Why should you be intoxicated, my child, by a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
BSB(i) 3 Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey and her speech is smoother than oil, 4 in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a double-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to Sheol. 6 She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable. 7 So now, my sons, listen to me, and do not turn aside from the words of my mouth. 8 Keep your path far from her; do not go near the door of her house, 9 lest you concede your vigor to others, and your years to one who is cruel; 10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich the house of a foreigner. 11 At the end of your life you will groan when your flesh and your body are spent, 12 and you will 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 mentors. 14 I am on the brink of utter ruin in the midst of the whole assembly.” 15 Drink water from your own cistern, and running water from your own well. 16 Why should your springs flow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? 17 Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers. 18 May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth: 19 A loving doe, a graceful fawn—may her breasts satisfy you always; may you be captivated by her love forever. 20 Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress, or embrace the bosom of a stranger?

MLV(i) 3 Because the lips of a strange woman drop honey and her mouth 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 take hold on Sheol, 6 so that she does not find the level path of life. Her ways are unstable and she does not know.
7 Now therefore, you* the sons, listen to me and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Remove your way far from her and do not come near the door of her house, 9 lest you give your honor to others and your years to the cruel, 10 lest strangers be filled with your strength and your labors be in the house of an alien, 11 and you mourn at your latter end when your flesh and your body are consumed, 12 and say, How I have hated instruction and my heart despised reproof. 13 Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me! 14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the assembly and congregation.
15 Drink waters out of your own cistern and flowing waters out of your own well. 16 Should your springs be dispersed abroad and 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 loving female-deer and a pleasant doe. Let her breasts satisfy you at all times and be ravished always with her love.
20 For why should you, my son, be ravished with an strange woman and embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
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. 16 Should your springs overflow in the streets, streams of water in the public squares? 17 Let them be yours alone. Do not share with strangers. 18 May your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth. 19 A loving doe and a graceful deer-- let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love. 20 For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom of another?

DSV(i) 3 Want de lippen der vreemde vrouw druppen honigzeem, en haar gehemelte is gladder dan olie. 4 Maar het laatste van haar is bitter als alsem, scherp als een tweesnijdend zwaard. 5 Haar voeten dalen naar den dood, haar treden houden de hel vast. 6 Opdat gij het pad des levens niet zoudt wegen, zijn haar gangen ongestadig, dat gij het niet merkt. 7 Nu dan, gij kinderen! hoort naar mij, en wijkt niet van de redenen mijns monds. 8 Maak uw weg verre van haar, en nader niet tot de deur van haar huis; 9 Opdat gij anderen uw eer niet geeft, en uw jaren den wrede; 10 Opdat de vreemden zich niet verzadigen van uw vermogen, en al uw smartelijke arbeid niet kome in het huis des onbekenden; 11 En gij in uw laatste brult, als uw vlees, en uw lijf verteerd is; 12 En zegt: Hoe heb ik de tucht gehaat, en mijn hart de bestraffing versmaad! 13 En heb niet gehoord naar de stem mijner onderwijzers, noch mijn oren geneigd tot mijn leraars! 14 Ik ben bijna in alle kwaad geweest, in het midden der gemeente en der vergadering! 15 Drink water uit uw bak, en vloeden uit het midden van uw bornput; 16 Laat uw fonteinen zich buiten verspreiden, en de waterbeken op de straten; 17 Laat ze de uwe alleen zijn, en van geen vreemde met u. 18 Uw springader zij gezegend; en verblijd u vanwege de huisvrouw uwer jeugd; 19 Een zeer liefelijke hinde, en een aangenaam steengeitje; laat u haar borsten te allen tijd dronken maken; dool steeds in haar liefde. 20 En waarom zoudt gij, mijn zoon, in een vreemde dolen, en den schoot der onbekende omvangen?

Giguet(i) 3 Car le miel découle des lèvres de la femme débauchée, qui, pour un temps charmera ton palais. 4 Mais après tu la trouveras plus amère que le fiel, et plus aiguë qu’un glaive à double tranchant. 5 Car les pieds de la folie conduisent ceux qui l’aiment à l’enfer, en compagnie de la mort, et ses point ne laissent pas de traces. 6 Elle ne chemine point dans les voies de vie; mais ses sentiers sont glissants et difficiles à suivre. 7 Maintenant donc, ô mon fils, écoute-moi, et ne rends point vaines mes paroles. 8 Fais que ta voie soit loin d’elle; ne t’approche pas des portes de sa demeure. 9 De peur qu’elle ne livre ta vie à des étrangers, et tes biens à des gens sans pitié; 10 de peur que des étrangers ne se rassasient de tes richesses, et que le fruit de tes labeurs ne s’en aille dans la maison d’autrui; 11 et tu te repentirais à ton dernier jour, quand les chairs de ton corps seraient consumées, et tu dirais 12 Pourquoi ai-je haï la discipline, et pourquoi mon cœur a-t-il éludé les réprimandes? 13 Je n’ai point écouté la voix de celui qui me corrigeait et m’enseignait, et je ne lui ai point prêté l’oreille. 14 J’ai failli être en butte à tous les maux, au milieu de l’église et de la synagogue. 15 ¶ Bois des eaux de tes vases et des sources de ton puits. 16 Prends garde que chez toi les eaux ne débordent de ta fontaine, et que tes eaux ne s’écoulent dans les places publiques. 17 Possède-les seul, et que nul étranger n’y ait part. 18 Que l’eau de ta fontaine soit vraiment à toi, et réjouis-toi en la femme de ta jeunesse. 19 Qu’elles soit pour toi comme la biche bien-aimée, comme le faon de tes grâces; qu’elle soit considérée comme ton bien propre, qu’elle t’assiste en toute circonstance; car, ravi de son amour, tu vivras longtemps. 20 Garde-toi de l’intimité avec une étrangère; ne te laisse pas enlacer dans les bras d’une femme qui n’est point la tienne.
DarbyFR(i) 3 Car les lèvres de l'étrangère distillent du miel, et son palais est plus doux que l'huile; 4 mais à la fin elle est amère comme l'absinthe, aiguë comme une épée à deux tranchants. 5 Ses pieds descendent à la mort, ses pas atteignent le shéol, 6 de sorte qu'elle ne pèse pas le sentier de la vie; ses voies sont errantes: elle n'a pas de connaissance. 7 Et maintenant, mes fils, écoutez-moi, et ne vous détournez pas des paroles de ma bouche. 8 Éloigne ta voie d'auprès d'elle, et ne t'approche point de l'entrée de sa maison; 9 de peur que tu ne donnes ton honneur à d'autres, et tes années à l'homme cruel; 10 de peur que des étrangers ne se rassasient de ton bien, et que ton travail ne soit dans la maison d'un étranger; 11 et que tu ne gémisses à ta fin, quand ta chair et ton corps se consumeront; 12 et que tu ne dises: Comment ai-je haï l'instruction, et mon coeur a-t-il méprisé la répréhension? 13 Comment n'ai-je pas écouté la voix de ceux qui m'instruisaient, ni incliné mon oreille vers ceux qui m'enseignaient? 14 Peu s'en est fallu que je n'aie été dans toute sorte de mal, au milieu de la congrégation et de l'assemblée. 15
Bois des eaux de ta citerne, et de ce qui coule du milieu de ton puits. 16 Tes fontaines se répandront au dehors, des ruisseaux d'eau dans les places. 17 Qu'elles soient à toi seul, et non à des étrangers avec toi. 18 Que ta source soit bénie, et réjouis-toi de la femme de ta jeunesse, 19 biche des amours, et chevrette pleine de grâce; que ses seins t'enivrent en tout temps; sois continuellement épris de son amour. 20 Et pourquoi, mon fils, serais-tu épris d'une étrangère, et embrasserais-tu le sein de l'étrangère?
Martin(i) 3 Car les lèvres de l'étrangère distillent des rayons de miel, et son palais est plus doux que l'huile. 4 Mais ce qui en provient est amer comme de l'absinthe, et aigu comme une épée à deux tranchants. 5 Ses pieds descendent à la mort, ses démarches aboutissent au sépulcre. 6 Afin que tu ne balances point le chemin de la vie; ses chemins en sont écartés, tu ne le connaîtras point. 7 Maintenant donc, enfants, écoutez-moi, et ne vous détournez point des paroles de ma bouche. 8 Eloigne ton chemin de la femme étrangère, et n'approche point de l'entrée de sa maison. 9 De peur que tu ne donnes ton honneur à d'autres, et tes ans au cruel. 10 De peur que les étrangers ne se rassasient de tes facultés, et que le fruit de ton travail ne soit en la maison du forain; 11 Et que tu ne rugisses quand tu seras près de ta fin, quand ta chair et ton corps seront consumés; 12 Et que tu ne dises : Comment ai-je haï l'instruction, et comment mon coeur a-t-il dédaigné les répréhensions ? 13 Et comment n'ai-je point obéi à la voix de ceux qui m'instruisaient, et n'ai-je point incliné mon oreille à ceux qui m'enseignaient ? 14 Peu s'en est fallu que je n'aie été dans toute sorte de mal, au milieu de la congrégation et de l'assemblée. 15 Bois des eaux de ta citerne, et des ruisseaux du milieu de ton puits; 16 Que tes fontaines se répandent dehors, et les ruisseaux d'eau par les rues; 17 Qu'elles soient à toi seul, et non aux étrangers avec toi. 18 Que ta source soit bénie, et réjouis-toi de la femme de ta jeunesse, 19 Comme d'une biche aimable, et d'une chevrette gracieuse; que ses mamelles te rassasient en tout temps, et sois continuellement épris de son amour; 20 Et pourquoi, mon fils, irais-tu errant après l'étrangère, et embrasserais-tu le sein de la foraine ?
Segond(i) 3 Car les lèvres de l'étrangère distillent le miel, Et son palais est plus doux que l'huile; 4 Mais à la fin elle est amère comme l'absinthe, Aiguë comme un glaive à deux tranchants. 5 Ses pieds descendent vers la mort, Ses pas atteignent le séjour des morts. 6 Afin de ne pas considérer le chemin de la vie, Elle est errante dans ses voies, elle ne sait où elle va. 7 Et maintenant, mes fils, écoutez-moi, Et ne vous écartez pas des paroles de ma bouche. 8 Eloigne-toi du chemin qui conduit chez elle, Et ne t'approche pas de la porte de sa maison, 9 De peur que tu ne livres ta vigueur à d'autres, Et tes années à un homme cruel; 10 De peur que des étrangers ne se rassasient de ton bien, Et du produit de ton travail dans la maison d'autrui; 11 De peur que tu ne gémisses, près de ta fin, Quand ta chair et ton corps se consumeront, 12 Et que tu ne dises: Comment donc ai-je pu haïr la correction, Et comment mon coeur a-t-il dédaigné la réprimande? 13 Comment ai-je pu ne pas écouter la voix de mes maîtres, Ne pas prêter l'oreille à ceux qui m'instruisaient? 14 Peu s'en est fallu que je n'aie éprouvé tous les malheurs Au milieu du peuple et de l'assemblée. 15 Bois les eaux de ta citerne, Les eaux qui sortent de ton puits. 16 Tes sources doivent-elles se répandre au dehors? Tes ruisseaux doivent ils couler sur les places publiques? 17 Qu'ils soient pour toi seul, Et non pour des étrangers avec toi. 18 Que ta source soit bénie, Et fais ta joie de la femme de ta jeunesse, 19 Biche des amours, gazelle pleine de grâce: Sois en tout temps enivré de ses charmes, Sans cesse épris de son amour. 20 Et pourquoi, mon fils, serais-tu épris d'une étrangère, Et embrasserais-tu le sein d'une inconnue?

RST(i) 3 ибо мед источают уста чужой жены, и мягче елея речь ее; 4 но последствия от нее горьки, как полынь, остры, как меч обоюдоострый; 5 ноги ее нисходят к смерти, стопы ее достигают преисподней. 6 Если бы ты захотел постигнуть стезю жизни ее, то пути ее непостоянны, и ты не узнаешь их. 7 Итак, дети, слушайте меня и не отступайте от слов уст моих. 8 Держи дальше от нее путь твой и не подходи близко к дверям дома ее, 9 чтобы здоровья твоего не отдать другим и лет твоих мучителю; 10 чтобы не насыщались силою твоею чужие, и труды твои не были для чужого дома. 11 И ты будешь стонать после, когда плоть твоя и телотвое будут истощены, – 12 и скажешь: „зачем я ненавидел наставление, и сердце мое пренебрегало обличением, 13 и я не слушал голоса учителей моих, не приклонял уха моего кнаставникам моим: 14 едва не впал я во всякое зло среди собрания и общества!" 15 Пей воду из твоего водоема и текущую из твоего колодезя. 16 Пусть не разливаются источники твои по улице, потоки вод – по площадям; 17 пусть они будут принадлежать тебе одному, а не чужим с тобою. 18 Источник твой да будет благословен; и утешайся женою юности твоей, 19 любезною ланью и прекрасною серною: груди ее да упоявают тебя во всякое время, любовью ее услаждайся постоянно. 20 И для чего тебе, сын мой, увлекаться постороннею и обнимать грудичужой?

Bulgarian(i) 3 Защото от устните на чуждата жена капе мед и говорът й е по-мек от маслинено масло, 4 но последствията й са горчиви като пелин, остри като двуостър меч. 5 Краката й слизат в смъртта, стъпките й водят към Шеол. 6 За да не разсъдиш за пътя на живота, пътищата й са непостоянни, и ти не ги знаеш. 7 И така, синове, слушайте ме и не отстъпвайте от думите на устата ми. 8 Отдалечи пътя си от нея и не се приближавай до вратата на къщата й, 9 за да не дадеш честта си на други и годините си на жестокия; 10 да не се наситят чужди с имота ти и трудовете ти да отидат в дома на чужденец; 11 а ти да стенеш в края си, когато плътта ти и тялото ти излинеят, 12 и да казваш: Как намразих поучението и сърцето ми презря изобличението, 13 и не послушах гласа на учителите си и не приклоних ухото си към наставниците си! 14 Без малко щях да изпадна във всяко зло сред събранието и обществото. 15 Пий вода от своята си щерна и която извира от твоя си кладенец. 16 Навън ще се изливат изворите ти, водните потоци — по улиците. 17 Нека бъдат само твои, а не и на чужди заедно с теб. 18 Да бъде благословен твоят извор и весели се с жената на младостта си — 19 любяща кошута и изящна сърна — нека нейните гърди те опиват по всяко време и винаги се възхищавай от нейната любов. 20 И защо, сине мой, да се възхищаваш от чужда и да прегръщаш обятията на чужда?
Croatian(i) 3 Jer s usana žene preljubnice kaplje med i nepce joj je glađe od ulja, 4 ali je ona naposljetku gorka kao pelin, oštra kao dvosjekli mač. 5 Njene noge silaze k smrti, a koraci vode u Podzemlje. 6 Ona ne pazi na put života, ne mari što su joj staze kolebljive. 7 Zato me sada poslušaj, sine, i ne odstupaj od riječi mojih usta. 8 Neka je put tvoj daleko od nje i ne približuj se vratima njezine kuće, 9 da drugima ne bi dao svoju slavu i okrutnima svoje godine; 10 da se ne bi tuđinci nasitili tvoga dobra i da tvoja zaslužba ne ode u tuđu kuću; 11 da ne ridaš na koncu kad ti nestane tijela i puti 12 i da ne kažeš: "Oh, kako sam mrzio pouku i kako mi je srce preziralo ukor! 13 I ne slušah glasa svojih učitelja, niti priklonih uho onima što me poučavahu. 14 I umalo ne zapadoh u svako zlo, usred zbora i zajednice!" 15 Pij vodu iz svoje nakapnice i onu što teče iz tvoga studenca. 16 Moraju li se tvoji izvori razlijevati i tvoji potoci teći ulicama? 17 Nego neka oni budu samo tvoji, a ne i tuđinaca koji su uza te. 18 Neka je blagoslovljen izvor tvoj i raduj se sa ženom svoje mladosti: 19 neka ti je kao mila košuta i ljupka gazela, neka te grudi njene opajaju u svako doba, njezina ljubav zatravljuje bez prestanka! 20 TÓa zašto bi se, sine moj, zanosio preljubnicom i grlio tuđinki njedra?
BKR(i) 3 Nebo rtové cizí ženy strdí tekou, a měkčejší nad olej ústa její. 4 Poslední pak věci její hořké jsou jako pelyněk, ostré jako meč na obě straně ostrý. 5 Nohy její sstupují k smrti, krokové její hrob uchvacují. 6 Stezku života snad bys zvážiti chtěl? Vrtkéť jsou cesty její, neseznáš. 7 Protož, synové, poslechněte mne, a neodstupujte od řečí úst mých. 8 Vzdal od ní cestu svou, a nepřibližuj se ke dveřím domu jejího, 9 Abys snad nedal jiným slávy své, a let svých ukrutnému, 10 Aby se nenasytili cizí úsilím tvým, a práce tvá nezůstala v domě cizím. 11 I řval bys naposledy, když bys zhubil tělo své a čerstvost svou, 12 A řekl bys: Jak jsem nenáviděl cvičení, a domlouváním pohrdalo srdce mé, 13 A neposlouchal jsem hlasu vyučujících mne, a k učitelům svým nenaklonil jsem ucha svého! 14 O málo, že jsem nevlezl ve všecko zlé u prostřed shromáždění a zástupu. 15 Pí vodu z čisterny své, a prameny z prostředku vrchoviště svého. 16 Nechť se rozlévají studnice tvé ven, a potůčkové vod na ulice. 17 Měj je sám sobě, a ne cizí s tebou. 18 Budiž požehnaný pramen tvůj, a vesel se z manželky mladosti své. 19 Laně milostné a srny utěšené; prsy její ať tě opojují všelikého času, v milování jejím kochej se ustavičně. 20 Nebo proč bys se kochal, synu můj, v cizí, a objímal život postranní,
Danish(i) 3 Thi med Honning dryppe den fremmede Kvindes Læber, og glattere end Olie er hendes Gane. 4 Men paa det sidste er hun besk som Malurt, hvas som et tveægget Sværd. 5 Hendes Fødder gaa nedad til Døden, hendes Skridt stunde imod Dødsriget. 6 For at hun ikke skal tænke over Livets Sti, ere hendes Veje ustadige, uden at hun ved det. 7 Saa hører mig nu, I Børn! og viger ikke fra min Munds Ord. 8 Lad din Vej være langt fra hende, og nærm dig ikke Døren til hendes Hus, 9 at du ikke skal give andre din Ære og en grusom Herre dine Aar; 10 at fremmede ikke skulle mættes af din Formue, og alt, hvad du har arbejdet for, komme i anden Mands Hus; 11 saa at du skal hyle paa det sidste, naar dit Kød og dit Huld tæres hen, 12 og sige: Hvorledes har jeg dog kunnet hade Undervisning og mit Hjerte kunnet foragte Revselse? 13 saa at jeg ikke hørte paa mine Læbers Røst, ej heller bøjede mit Øre til dem, som underviste mig. 14 Nær var jeg kommen i al Ulykke midt i Forsamlingen og Menigheden. 15 Drik Vand af din egen Brønd og frisk Vand af din egen Kilde 16 Skulde vel dine Kilder flyde udenfor, dine Vandbække ud paa Gaderne? 17 Lad dem høre dig til, dig alene, og ikke de fremmede tillige med dig. 18 Din Kilde være velsignet, og glæd dig ved din Ungdoms Hustru, 19 en elskelig Hind og en yndig Stenged; hendes Barm beruse dig stedse, i hendes Kærlighed sværme du alle Tider. 20 Hvorfor vil dum min Søn!

Mwen pa t' louvri zòrèy mwen lè yo t'ap pale m'. 14 Yon ti kras ankò, mwen t'ap nan tout kalite malè. La, devan tout moun, mwen t'ap pèdi repitasyon m'. 15 Bwè dlo nan kannari ou. Se ak madanm ou ase pou ou rete. 16 Pa fè pitit ak fanm deyò, pou san ou pa trennen nan lari. 17 Se pou pitit ou grandi anndan lakay ou. Yo pa ka ap sèvi ou pou y'ap sèvi moun deyò tou. 18 Fè kè ou kontan ak madanm ou. Pran plezi ou ak madanm ou renmen depi lè ou te jenn lan. 19 L'ap bèl, l'ap anfòm tankou nègès banda. Se pou karès li yo toujou fè kè ou kontan, se pou ou toujou renmen fè lamou ak li. 20 Pitit mwen, poukisa pou ou renmen yon lòt fanm? Poukisa pou ou kite madanm ou pou madanm lòt moun?
Hungarian(i) 3 Mert színmézet csepeg az idegen asszony ajka, és símább az olajnál az õ ínye. 4 De annak vége keserû, mint az üröm, éles, mint a kétélû tõr. 5 Az õ lábai a halálra mennek, az õ léptei a sírba törekszenek. 6 Az életnek útát hogy ne követhesse, ösvényei változókká lettek, a nélkül, hogy õ eszébe venné. 7 Most azért, fiaim, hallgassatok engem, és ne távozzatok el számnak beszéditõl! 8 Távoztasd el attól útadat, és ne közelgess házának ajtajához, 9 Hogy másoknak ne add a te ékességedet, és esztendeidet a kegyetlennek; 10 Hogy ne az idegenek teljenek be a te marháiddal, és a te keresményed más házába ne [jusson.] 11 Hogy nyögnöd kelljen [élet]ed végén, a mikor megemésztetik a te húsod és a te tested, 12 És azt kelljen mondanod: miképen gyûlöltem az erkölcsi tanítást, és a fenyítéket útálta az én elmém, 13 És nem hallgattam az én vezetõim szavát, és az én tanítóimhoz nem hajtottam fülemet! 14 Kevés híja volt, hogy minden gonoszságba nem merültem a gyülekezetnek és községnek közepette! 15 Igyál vizet a te kútadból, és a te forrásod közepibõl folyóvizet. 16 Kifolyjanak-é a te forrásid, az utczákra a te vized folyásai? 17 Egyedül tied legyenek, és nem az idegenekéi veled. 18 Legyen a te forrásod áldott, és örvendezz a te ifjúságod feleségének. 19 A szerelmes szarvas, és kedves zerge; az õ emlõi elégítsenek meg téged minden idõben, az õ szerelmében gyönyörködjél szüntelen. 20 És miért bujdosnál, fiam, az idegen után, és ölelnéd keblét az idegennek?
Indonesian(i) 3 Perempuan nakal, mulutnya semanis madu dan kata-katanya memikat hati, 4 tetapi apabila semuanya telah berlalu, yang tertinggal hanyalah kepahitan dan penderitaan. 5 Engkau diseretnya turun ke dunia orang mati; jalan yang ditempuhnya menuju kepada maut. 6 Ia tidak tetap pada jalan yang menuju hidup; tanpa diketahuinya ia telah menyimpang dari jalan itu. 7 Sebab itu, anak-anak, dengarkanlah kata-kataku dan janganlah mengabaikannya. 8 Jauhilah wanita yang demikian! Bahkan jangan mendekati rumahnya. 9 Kalau engkau bergaul dengan wanita itu, engkau akan kehilangan kehormatanmu dan nyawamu akan direnggut di masa mudamu oleh orang yang tidak kenal belas kasihan. 10 Kekayaanmu akan habis dimakan orang lain, dan hasil jerih payahmu menjadi milik orang yang tidak kaukenal. 11 Akhirnya engkau akan mengeluh, apabila badanmu habis dimakan penyakit. 12 Lalu engkau akan berkata, "Ah, kenapa aku membenci nasihat? Kenapa aku tidak mau ditegur? 13 Aku tak mau mendengarkan guru-guruku dan tidak mau menuruti mereka. 14 Tahu-tahu aku telah jatuh di mata masyarakat." 15 Sebab itu, setialah kepada istrimu sendiri dan berikanlah cintamu kepada dia saja. 16 Tidak ada gunanya bagimu mencari kenikmatan pada orang yang bukan istrimu. 17 Kenikmatan itu khusus untuk engkau dengan istrimu, tidak dengan orang lain. 18 Sebab itu, hendaklah engkau berbahagia dengan istrimu sendiri; carilah kenikmatan pada gadis yang telah kaunikahi-- 19 gadis jelita dan lincah seperti kijang. Biarlah kemolekan tubuhnya selalu membuat engkau tergila-gila dan asmaranya memabukkan engkau. 20 Apa gunanya bernafsu kepada wanita lain, anakku? Untuk apa menggauli perempuan nakal?
Italian(i) 3 Perciocchè le labbra della donna straniera stillano favi di miele. E il suo palato è più dolce che olio; 4 Ma il fine di essa è amaro come assenzio, Acuto come una spada a due tagli. 5 I suoi piedi scendono alla morte; I suoi passi fanno capo all’inferno. 6 I suoi sentieri sono vaganti, senza che essa sappia ove va, Perchè non considera attentamente la via della vita. 7 Ora dunque, figliuoli, ascoltatemi, E non vi dipartite da’ detti della mia bocca. 8 Allontana la tua via da essa, E non accostarti all’uscio della sua casa; 9 Che talora tu non dia il tuo onore agli stranieri, E gli anni tuoi al crudele; 10 Che talora i forestieri non si sazino delle tue facoltà; E che le tue fatiche non vadano nella casa dello strano; 11 E che tu non gema alla fine, Quando la tua carne ed il tuo corpo saranno consumati; 12 E non dica: Come ebbi io in odio l’ammaestramento? E come rigettò il mio cuore la correzione? 13 E come non ascoltai la voce di quelli che mi ammaestravano, E non inchinai il mio orecchio a quelli che m’insegnavano? 14 Quasi che sono stato in ogni male, In mezzo della raunanza e della congregazione. 15 Bevi delle acque della tua cisterna, E de’ ruscelli di mezzo della tua fonte. 16 Spandansi le tue fonti fuori, Ed i ruscelli delle tue acque per le piazze. 17 Sieno quelle acque a te solo, E a niuno strano teco. 18 Sia la tua fonte benedetta; E rallegrati della moglie della tua giovanezza. 19 Siati ella una cerva amorosa, ed una cavriuola graziosa; Inebbrinti le sue mammelle in ogni tempo; Sii del continuo invaghito del suo amore. 20 E perchè, figliuol mio, t’invaghiresti della straniera, Ed abbracceresti il seno della forestiera?
ItalianRiveduta(i) 3 Poiché le labbra dell’adultera stillano miele, e la sua bocca è più morbida dell’olio; 4 ma la fine cui mena è amara come l’assenzio, è acuta come una spada a due tagli. 5 I suoi piedi scendono alla morte, i suoi passi fan capo al soggiorno dei defunti. 6 Lungi dal prendere il sentiero della vita, le sue vie sono erranti, e non sa dove va. 7 Or dunque, figliuoli, ascoltatemi, e non vi dipartite dalle parole della mia bocca. 8 Tieni lontana da lei la tua via, e non t’accostare alla porta della sua casa, 9 per non dare ad altri il fiore della tua gioventù, e i tuoi anni al tiranno crudele; 10 perché degli stranieri non si sazino de’ tuoi beni, e le tue fatiche non vadano in casa d’altri; 11 perché tu non abbia a gemere quando verrà la tua fine, quando la tua carne e il tuo corpo saran consumati, 12 e tu non dica: "Come ho fatto a odiare la correzione, come ha potuto il cuor mio sprezzare la riprensione? 13 come ho fatto a non ascoltare la voce di chi m’ammaestrava, e a non porger l’orecchio a chi m’insegnava? 14 poco mancò che non mi trovassi immerso in ogni male, in mezzo al popolo ed all’assemblea". 15 Bevi l’acqua della tua cisterna, l’acqua viva del tuo pozzo 16 Le tue fonti debbon esse spargersi al di fuori? e i tuoi rivi debbon essi scorrer per le strade? 17 Siano per te solo, e non per degli stranieri con te. 18 Sia benedetta la tua fonte, e vivi lieto con la sposa della tua gioventù. 19 Cerva d’amore, cavriola di grazia, le sue carezze t’inebrino in ogni tempo, e sii del continuo rapito nell’affetto suo. 20 E perché, figliuol mio, t’invaghiresti d’un’estranea, e abbracceresti il seno della donna altrui?
Korean(i) 3 대저 음녀의 입술은 꿀을 떨어뜨리며 그 입은 기름보다 미끄러우나 4 나중은 쑥 같이 쓰고 두 날 가진 칼같이 날카로우며 5 그 발은 사지로 내려가며 그 걸음은 음부로 나아가나니 6 그는 생명의 평탄한 길을 찾지 못하며 자기 길이 든든치 못하여 그것을 깨닫지 못하느니라 7 그런즉 아들들아 나를 들으며 내 입의 말을 버리지 말고 8 네 길을 그에게서 멀리하라 그 집 문에도 가까이 가지 말라 9 두렵건대 네 존영이 남에게 잃어버리게 되며 네 수한이 잔포자에게 빼앗기게 될까 하노라 10 두렵건대 타인이 네 재물로 충족하게 되며 네 수고한 것이 외인의 집에 있게 될까 하노라 11 두렵건대 마지막에 이르러 네 몸 네 육체가 쇠패할 때에 네가 한탄하여 12 말하기를 내가 어찌하여 훈계를 싫어하며 내 마음이 꾸지람을 가벼이 여기고 13 내 선생의 목소리를 청종치 아니하며 나를 가르치는 이에게 귀를 기울이지 아니하였던고 14 많은 무리들이 모인 중에서 모든 악에 거의 빠지게 되었었노라 하게 될까 하노라 15 너는 네 우물에서 물을 마시며 네 샘에서 흐르는 물을 마시라 16 어찌하여 네 샘물을 집 밖으로 넘치게 하겠으며 네 도랑물을 거리로 흘러가게 하겠느냐 17 그 물로 네게만 있게 하고 타인으로 더불어 그것을 나누지 말라 18 네 샘으로 복되게 하라 ! 네가 젊어서 취한 아내를 즐거워하라 19 그는 사랑스러운 암사슴 같고 아름다운 암노루 같으니 너는 그 품을 항상 족하게 여기며 그 사랑을 항상 연모하라 20 내 아들아 어찌하여 음녀를 연모하겠으며 어찌하여 이방 계집의 가슴을 안겠느냐
Lithuanian(i) 3 Kaip varvantis medus svetimos moters lūpos ir jos burna švelnesnė už aliejų. 4 Bet galiausiai ji tampa karti kaip metėlė ir aštri kaip dviašmenis kalavijas. 5 Jos kojos žengia į mirtį, jos žingsniai veda į pragarą. 6 Kad tu nemąstytum apie jos gyvenimo taką, žinok­jos keliai nepastovūs ir tu negali jų suprasti. 7 Dabar, mano vaikai, klausykite manęs ir neatsitraukite nuo mano burnos žodžių. 8 Atitolink nuo jos savo kelią ir nesiartink prie jos namų durų, 9 kad neatiduotum savo garbės kitiems ir savo metų negailestingajam; 10 kad svetimi nesisotintų tavo gėrybėmis ir tavo darbas nebūtų svetimojo namuose, 11 ir galiausiai neturėtum vaitoti, išsekinęs kūną bei jėgas, 12 ir sakyti: “Kodėl nekenčiau pamokymų ir mano širdis paniekino pabarimą, 13 neklausiau savo mokytojų balso ir nepalenkiau savo ausies prie tų, kurie mane mokė? 14 Aš kone patekau į visokias nelaimes bendruomenės ir susirinkimo vidury”. 15 Gerk vandenį iš savo šulinio, tekantį vandenį iš savo versmės. 16 Ar tavo vandens šaltiniai išsilies po gatves, o vandens srovės aikštėse? 17 Tebūna jie tik tau, nedalink jų svetimiems. 18 Tebūna tavo šaltinis palaimintas ir džiaukis su savo jaunystės žmona. 19 Ji kaip miela stirna, kaip grakšti elnė. Tegul jos krūtys tenkina tave visą laiką, nuolat mėgaukis jos meile. 20 Mano sūnau, kam tau mėgautis svetima moterimi ir apsikabinti su svetimąja?
PBG(i) 3 Bo choć niewiasty obcej wargi miodem opływają, a gładsze niż oliwa usta jej: 4 Ale ostatnie rzeczy jej gorzkie jak piołun, a ostre jako miecz na obie strony ostry. 5 Nogi jej zstępują do śmierci, a do piekła chód jej prowadzi. 6 Jeźlibyś zważyć chciał ścieszkę żywota jej, nie pewne są drogi jej, nie poznasz ich. 7 Przetoż teraz, synowie! słuchajcie mię, a nie odstępujcie od powieści ust moich. 8 Oddal od niej drogę twoję, a nie przybliżaj się ku drzwiom domu jej. 9 Byś snać nie podał obcym sławy twojej, a lat twoich okrutnikowi; 10 By się snać nie nasycili obcy siłą twoją, a prace twoje nie zostały w domu cudzym; 11 I narzekałbyś w ostateczne czasy twoje, gdybyś zniszczył czerstwość twoję i ciało twoje; 12 I rzekłbyś: O jakożem miał ćwiczenie w nienawiści, a strofowaniem gardziło serce moje! 13 Nie słuchałem głosu ćwiczących mię, a tym, którzy mię uczyli, nie nakłaniałem ucha mego! 14 Maluczkom nie przyszedł we wszystko nieszczęście, w pośród zebrania i zgromadzenia. 15 Pij wodę ze zdroju twego, a wody płynące ze źródła twego! 16 Niech się precz rozchodzą źródła twoje, a po ulicach strumienie wód. 17 Miej je sam dla siebie, a nie obcy z tobą. 18 Niech nie będzie zdrój twój błogosławiony, a wesel się z żony młodości twojej. 19 Niechżeć będzie jako łani wdzięczna, i sarna rozkodzna; niech cię nasycają piersi jej na każdy czas, w miłości jej kochaj się ustawicznie. 20 Bo przeczże się masz kochać w obcej, synu mój! i odpoczywać na łonie cudzej?
Portuguese(i) 3 Porque os lábios da mulher licenciosa destilam mel, e a sua boca e mais macia do que o azeite; 4 mas o seu fim é amargoso como o absinto, agudo como a espada de dois gumes. 5 Os seus pés descem à morte; os seus passos seguem no caminho do Seol. 6 Ela não pondera a vereda da vida; incertos são os seus caminhos, e ela o ignora. 7 Agora, pois, filhos, dai-me ouvidos, e não vos desvieis das palavras da minha boca. 8 Afasta para longe dela o teu caminho, e não te aproximes da porta da sua casa; 9 para que não dês a outros a tua honra, nem os teus anos a cruéis; 10 para que não se fartem os estranhos dos teus bens, e não entrem os teus trabalhos na casa do estrangeiro, 11 e gemas no teu fim, quando se consumirem a tua carne e o teu corpo, 12 e digas: Como detestei a disciplina! e desprezou o meu coração a repreensão! 13 e não escutei a voz dos que me ensinavam, nem aos que me instruíam inclinei o meu ouvido! 14 Quase cheguei à ruína completa, no meio da congregação e da assembleia. 15 Bebe a água da tua própria cisterna, e das correntes do teu poço. 16 Derramar-se-iam as tuas fontes para fora, e pelas ruas os ribeiros de águas? 17 Sejam para ti só, e não para os estranhos juntamente contigo. 18 Seja bendito o teu manancial; e regozija-te na mulher da tua mocidade. 19 Como corça amorosa, e graciosa cabra montesa saciem-te os seus seios em todo o tempo; e pelo seu amor sê encantado perpetuamente. 20 E por que, filho meu, andarias atraído pela mulher licenciosa, e abraçarias o seio da adúltera?
Romanian(i) 3 Căci buzele femeii străine strecoară miere, şi cerul gurii ei este mai lunecos decît untdelemnul; 4 dar la urmă este amară ca pelinul, ascuţită ca o sabie cu două tăişuri. 5 Picioarele ei pogoară la moarte, paşii ei dau în locuinţa morţilor. 6 Aşa că ea nu poate găsi calea vieţii, rătăceşte în căile ei, şi nu ştie unde merge. 7 Şi acum, fiilor, ascultaţi-mă, şi nu vă abateţi dela cuvintele gurii mele: 8 depărtează-te de drumul care duce la ea, şi nu te apropia de uşa casei ei, 9 ca nu cumva să-ţi dai altora vlaga ta, şi unui om fără milă anii tăi; 10 ca nu cumva nişte străini să se sature de averea ta, şi tu să te trudeşti pentru casa altuia; 11 ca nu cumva să gemi, la urmă, cînd carnea şi trupul ţi se vor istovi, 12 şi să zici:,,Cum am putut eu să urăsc certarea, şi cum a dispreţuit inima mea mustrarea? 13 Cum am putut să n'ascult glasul învăţătorilor mei, şi să nu iau aminte la ceice mă învăţau? 14 Cît pe ce să mă nenorocesc de tot în mijlocul poporului şi adunării!`` 15 Bea apă din fîntîna ta, şi din izvoarele puţului tău. 16 Ce, vrei să ţi se verse izvoarele afară? Şi să-ţi curgă rîurile pe pieţele de obşte? 17 Lasă-le să fie numai pentru tine, şi nu pentru străinii de lîngă tine. 18 Izvorul tău să fie binecuvîntat, şi bucură-te de nevasta tinereţii tale. 19 Cerboaică iubită, căprioară plăcută: fii îmbătat tot timpul de drăgălăşiile ei, fii îndrăgostit necurmat de dragostea ei! 20 Şi pentruce, fiule, ai fi îndrăgostit de o străină, şi ai îmbrăţişa sînul unei necunoscute?
Ukrainian(i) 3 Бо крапають солодощ губи блудниці, а уста її від оливи масніші, 4 та гіркий їй кінець, мов полин, гострий, як меч обосічний, 5 її ноги до смерти спускаються, шеолу тримаються кроки її! 6 Вона путь життя не урівнює, її стежки непевні, і цього не знає вона. 7 Тож тепер, мої діти, мене ви послухайте, не відходьте від слів моїх уст: 8 віддали ти від неї дорогу свою, і не зближайсь до дверей її дому, 9 щоб слави своєї ти іншим не дав, а роки свої для жорстокого, 10 щоб чужі не наситились сили твоєї й маєтку твого в чужім домі!... 11 І будеш стогнати при своєму кінці, як знеможеться тіло твоє й твої сили, 12 і скажеш: Як ненавидів я те напучування, а картання те серце моє відкидало! 13 І не слухав я голосу своїх учителів, і уха свого не схиляв до наставників... 14 Трохи не був я при кожному злому, в середині збору й громади!... 15 Пий воду з криниці своєї, і текуче з свого колодязя: 16 чи ж мають на вулицю вилиті бути джерела твої, а на площі потоки твоєї води? 17 Нехай вони будуть для тебе, для тебе самого, а не для чужих із тобою! 18 Хай твоє джерело буде благословенне, і радій через жінку твоїх юних літ, 19 вона ланя любовна та серна прекрасна, її перса напоять тебе кожночасно, впивайся ж назавжди коханням її! 20 І нащо, мій сину, ти маєш впиватись блудницею, і нащо ти будеш пригортати груди чужинки?
