Proverbs-5

(World English Bible)

切换到福音影视网-新版圣经

  • 1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Turn your ear to my understanding:
  • 2 that you may maintain discretion, that your lips may preserve knowledge.
  • 3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,
  • 4 but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.
  • 5 Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol. Sheol is the place of the dead.
  • 6 She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it.
  • 7 Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don’t depart from the words of my mouth.
  • 8 Remove your way far from her. Don’t come near the door of her house,
  • 9 lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one;
  • 10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man’s house.
  • 11 You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
  • 12 and say, “How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
  • 13 neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!
  • 14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, among the gathered assembly.”
  • 15 Drink water out of your own cistern, running water out of your own well.
  • 16 Should your springs overflow in the streets, streams of water in the public squares?
  • 17 Let them be for yourself alone, not for strangers with you.
  • 18 Let your spring be blessed. Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
  • 19 A loving doe and a graceful deer— let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love.
  • 20 For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom of another?
  • 21 For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes. He examines all his paths.
  • 22 The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare him. The cords of his sin hold him firmly.
  • 23 He will die for lack of instruction. In the greatness of his folly, he will go astray.
