Proverbs 5:7–11

7 So now, sons, listen to me,

and don’t turn away from the words from my mouth.z

8 Keep your way far from her.

Don’t go near the door of her house.aa

9 Otherwise, you will give up your vitality to others

and your years to someone cruel;

10 strangers will drain your resources,

and your hard-earned pay will end up in a foreigner’s house.

11 At the end of your life, you will lament

when your physical body has been consumed,
