Proverbs 5:7-13

7Therefore hear me now, my children, And do not depart from the words of my mouth.

8Remove your way far from her, And do not go near the door of her house,

9Lest you give your honor to others, And your years to the cruel one;

10Lest aliens be filled with your wealth, And your labors go to the house of a foreigner;

11And you mourn at last, When your flesh and your body are consumed,

12And say: “How I have hated instruction, And my heart despised correction!

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