Proverbs 23:15-35

15My sonH1121, if thy heartH3820 be wiseH2449, my heartH3820 shall rejoiceH8055, even mine; 16and my reins shall exultH5937, when thy lipsH8193 speakH1696 right things. 17Let not thy heartH3820 envy sinnersH2400, but [be thou] in the fearH3374 of Jehovah all the dayH3117; 18for surely there is a result, and thine expectation shall not be cutH3772 off. 19Thou, my sonH1121, hearH8085 and be wiseH2449, and direct thy heartH3820 in the wayH1870. 20BeH1961 not among winebibbers, among riotous eaters of fleshH1320. 21For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; and drowsiness clotheth with rags. 22Hearken unto thy fatherH1 that begat thee, and despiseH936 not thy motherH517 when she is oldH2204. 23BuyH7069 the truthH571, and sellH4376 it not; wisdomH2451, and instruction, and intelligence. 24The fatherH1 of a righteousH6662 [man] shall greatly rejoiceH8055, and he that begetteth a wiseH2450 [son] shall have joy of him: 25let thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517 have joy, and let her that boreH3205 thee rejoiceH8055. 26My sonH1121, giveH5414 me thy heartH3820, and let thine eyesH5869 observe my waysH1870. 27For a whore is a deepH6013 ditch; and a strange womanH5237 is a narrow pitH7745. 28She alsoH637 lieth in waitH693 as a robber, and increaseth the treacherousH898 among menH120. 29Who hath woeH188? Who hath sorrow? Who contentionsH4066? Who complaining? Who woundsH6482 without causeH2600? Who redness of eyesH5869? 30— They that tarry long at the wineH3196; they that goH935 to try mixedH4469 wineH3196. 31LookH7200 not upon the wineH3196 when it is redH119, when it sparkleth in the cup, and goeth down smoothly: 32at the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. 33Thine eyesH5869 shall behold strangeH2114 women, and thy heartH3820 shall speakH1696 froward thingsH8419; 34and thou shalt beH1961 as he that lieth downH7901 in the midst of the seaH3220, and as he that lieth downH7901 upon the topH7218 of a mast: 35— “They have smitten me, [and] I am not sore; they have beaten me, [and] I knewH3045 it not. WhenH4970 shall I awake? I will seekH1245 it yetH5750 againH5750.”
