Book of Proverbs - Chapter 5

My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding
PROVERBS 5:1
That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.
PROVERBS 5:2
For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil
PROVERBS 5:3
But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
PROVERBS 5:4
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
PROVERBS 5:5
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.
PROVERBS 5:6
Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
PROVERBS 5:7
Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house
PROVERBS 5:8
Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel
PROVERBS 5:9
Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;
PROVERBS 5:10
And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
PROVERBS 5:11
And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
PROVERBS 5:12
And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
PROVERBS 5:13
I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
PROVERBS 5:14
Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
PROVERBS 5:15
Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.
PROVERBS 5:16
Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.
PROVERBS 5:17
Let thy fountain be blessed and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
PROVERBS 5:18
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.
PROVERBS 5:19
And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
PROVERBS 5:20
For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.
PROVERBS 5:21
His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.
PROVERBS 5:22
He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
PROVERBS 5:23
