Proverbs:5:3-22




noyes@Proverbs:5:3 @ Truly, the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And her mouth is smoother than oil;

noyes@Proverbs:5:4 @ But her end is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two–edged sword.

noyes@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death; Her steps lay hold of the under–world.

noyes@Proverbs:5:6 @ That she may not ponder the way of life, Her paths waver when she heedeth it not.

noyes@Proverbs:5:7 @ Hear me now, therefore, O children! And turn not away from the words of my mouth!

noyes@Proverbs:5:8 @ Remove thy way far from her. And come not nigh the door of her house:

noyes@Proverbs:5:9 @ Lest thou give thy bloom to others, And thy years to a cruel one;

noyes@Proverbs:5:10 @ Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth, And thine earnings be in the house of an alien;

noyes@Proverbs:5:11 @ And lest thou mourn in thy latter end. When thy flesh and thy body are consumed,

noyes@Proverbs:5:12 @ And say, "How have I hated instruction! And how hath my heart despised reproof!

noyes@Proverbs:5:13 @ I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined mine ear to my instructors;

noyes@Proverbs:5:14 @ I have well–nigh fallen into utter misery; In the midst of the congregation and the assembly."

noyes@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink water out of thine own cistern. And running water out of thine own well:

noyes@Proverbs:5:16 @ So shall thy fountains overflow in the streets, In the wide streets, as streams of water;

noyes@Proverbs:5:17 @ They shall belong to thee alone, And not to strangers with thee;

noyes@Proverbs:5:18 @ And thy fountain shall be blessed, Yea, thou shalt have joy in the wife of thy youth.

noyes@Proverbs:5:19 @ A lovely hind, a graceful doe, Her breasts shall satisfy thee at all times, And thou shalt be always ravished with her love.

noyes@Proverbs:5:20 @ Why, then, my son, wilt thou be ravished with a wanton, And embrace the bosom of a stranger?

noyes@Proverbs:5:21 @ For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, And he weigheth well all his paths.

noyes@Proverbs:5:22 @ His own iniquities shall ensnare the wicked; Yea, he shall be held fast by the cords of his own sins.
