Proverbs 5:7-13

7So now, sons, listen to me, and don’t turn away from the words from my mouth.

8Keep your way far from her. Don’t go near the door of her house.

9Otherwise, you will give up your vitality to others and your years to someone cruel;

10strangers will drain your resources, and your hard-earned pay will end up in a foreigner’s house.

11At the end of your life, you will lament when your physical body has been consumed,

12and you will say, “How I hated discipline, and how my heart despised correction.

13I didn’t obey my teachers or listen closely to my instructors.
