12and thou shalt say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart avoided reproofs!
13I heard not the voice of him that instructed me, and taught me, neither did I apply mine ear.
14I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
15Drink waters out of thine own vessels, and out of thine own springing wells.
16Let not waters out of thy fountain be spilt by thee, but let thy waters go into thy streets.
17Let them be only thine own, and let no stranger partake with thee.
18Let thy fountain of water be truly thine own; and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
19Let thy loving hart and thy graceful colt company with thee, and let her be considered thine own, and be with thee at all times; for ravished with her love thou shalt be greatly increased.
20Be not intimate with a strange woman, neither fold thyself in the arms of a woman not thine own.
21For the ways of a man are before the eyes of God, and he looks on all his paths.
22Iniquities ensnare a man, and every one is bound in the chains of his own sins.
23Such a man dies with the uninstructed; and he is cast forth from the abundance of his own substance, and has perished through folly.
