Proverbs 5:8-13

8Let your way [in life] be far from her, And do not go near the door of her house [avoid even being near the places of temptation],

9Or you will give your honor to others, And your years to the cruel one,

10And strangers will be filled with your strength And your hard-earned wealth will go to the house of a foreigner [who does not know God];

11And you will groan when your life is ending, When your flesh and your body are consumed;

12And you say, “How I hated instruction and discipline, And my heart despised correction and reproof!

13I have not listened to the voice of my teachers, Nor have I inclined my ear to those who instructed me.
