Book of Proverbs Chapter 05
20_PRO_05_01 My son, attend unto my wisdom, [and] bow thine ear to my understanding:
20_PRO_05_02 That thou mayest regard discretion, and [that] thy lips may keep knowledge.
20_PRO_05_03 For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] an honeycomb, and her mouth [is] smoother than oil:
20_PRO_05_04 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.
20_PRO_05_05 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
20_PRO_05_06 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, [that] thou canst not know [them].
20_PRO_05_07 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
20_PRO_05_08 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:
20_PRO_05_09 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:
20_PRO_05_10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours [be] in the house of a stranger;
20_PRO_05_11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
20_PRO_05_12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
20_PRO_05_13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
20_PRO_05_14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
20_PRO_05_15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
20_PRO_05_16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, [and] rivers of waters in the streets.
20_PRO_05_17 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.
20_PRO_05_18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
20_PRO_05_19 [Let her be as] the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.
20_PRO_05_20 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
20_PRO_05_21 For the ways of man [are] before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.
20_PRO_05_22 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.
20_PRO_05_23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
