Proverbs 5:14 Cross References - MSTC

¹⁴ I am come almost into all misfortune, in the midst of the multitude and congregation."

¹ And Israel dwelt in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab, ² which called the people unto the sacrifice of their gods. And the people ate, and worshipped their gods, ³ and Israel coupled himself unto Baal-Peor. Then the LORD was angry with Israel, ⁴ and said unto Moses, "Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up unto the LORD against the sun, that the wrath of the LORD may turn away from Israel." ⁵ And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, "Go and slay those men that joined themselves unto Baal- Peor." ⁶ And behold, one of the children of Israel went in against his brethren, and joined himself to a Midianitish woman, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the multitude of the children of Israel as they were weeping in the door of the tabernacle of witness.

²⁰ He that goeth in the company of wise men, shall be wise; but whoso is a companion of fools shall be hurt.

¹¹ Whoredom, wine and drunkenness take the heart away. ¹² My people ask counsel at their stocks, their staff must tell them. For a whorish mind hath deceived them, so that they commit fornication against their God. ¹³ They make sacrifices upon the high mountains, and burn their incense upon the hills, yea among the oaks, groves and bushes, for there are good shadows. Therefore your daughters are become harlots, and your spouses have broken their wedlock. ¹⁴ I will not punish your daughters for being defiled, and your brides that became whores: seeing the fathers themselves have meddled with harlots, and offered with unthriftiness: but the people that will not understand must be punished.

⁶ These are examples to us that we should not lust after evil things, as they lusted. ⁷ Neither be ye worshippers of images as were some of them according as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up again to play." ⁸ Neither let us commit fornication as some of them committed fornication, and were destroyed — in one day, twenty three thousand.

¹⁰ namely, them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise the rulers. Presumptuous are they, and stubborn, and fear not to speak evil of them that are in authority; ¹¹ when the angels, which are greater both in power and might, receive not of the Lord railing judgment against them. ¹² But these, as brute beasts, naturally made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of that they know not, and shall perish through their own destruction, ¹³ and receive the reward of unrighteousness. They count it pleasure to live deliciously for a season. Spots they are, and filthiness, living at pleasure, and in deceitful ways feasting with you: ¹⁴ having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease to sin, beguiling unstable souls. Hearts they have exercised with covetousness. They are cursed children, ¹⁵ and have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, which loved the reward of unrighteousness: ¹⁶ but was rebuked of his iniquity. The tame and dumb beast, speaking with man's voice forbade the foolishness of the prophet. ¹⁷ These are wells without water, and clouds carried about of a tempest, to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever. ¹⁸ For when they have spoken the swelling words of vanity, they beguile with wantonness through the lusts of the flesh them that were clean escaped: but now are wrapped in errors.

⁷ even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them — which in like manner defiled themselves, with fornication, and followed strange flesh — are set forth for an example, and suffer the vengeance of eternal fire. ⁸ Likewise these dreamers defile the flesh, despise rulers, and speak evil of them that are in authority. ⁹ Yet Michael the archangel, when he strove against the devil, and disputed the body of Moses, durst not give railing sentence, but said, "The Lord rebuke thee." ¹⁰ But these speak evil of those things which they know not. In those things which they know naturally — as beasts which are without reason — they corrupt themselves. ¹¹ Woe be unto them, for they have followed the way of Cain, and are utterly given to the error of Balaam for lucre's sake, and are cast away in the treason of Korah. ¹² These are spots which of your kindness feast together, without fear, feeding themselves. Clouds they are without water, carried about of winds: and trees without fruit at gathering time, twice dead, and plucked up by the roots. ¹³ They are raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame. They are wandering stars, to whom is reserved the mist of darkness forever.
