Proverbs:23:26-35
Seeker Overlay ON
*
My son ,
give me thine heart ,
and let thine eyes observe my ways .
*
For a whore is a deep ditch ;
and a strange woman is a narrow pit .
*
She also lieth in wait as for a prey ,
and increaseth the transgressors among men .
*
Who hath woe ?
who hath sorrow ?
who hath contentions ?
who hath babbling ?
who hath wounds without cause ?
who hath redness of eyes ?
*
They that tarry long at the wine ;
they that go to seek mixed wine .
*
Look not thou upon the wine when it is red ,
when it giveth his colour in the cup ,
when it moveth itself aright .
*
At the last it biteth like a serpent ,
and stingeth like an adder .
*
Thine eyes shall behold strange women ,
and thine heart shall utter perverse things .
*
Yea ,
thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea ,
or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast .
*
They have stricken me ,
shalt thou say ,
and I was not sick ;
they have beaten me ,
and I felt it not :
when shall I awake ?
I will seek it yet again .
