3For honey is dropping from the lips of the strange woman, and her mouth is smoother than oil;
4But her end is bitter as wormwood, and sharp as a two-edged sword;
5Her feet go down to death, and her steps to the underworld;
6She never keeps her mind on the road of life; her ways are uncertain, she has no knowledge.
7Give ear to me then, my sons, and do not put away my words from you.
8Go far away from her, do not come near the door of her house;
9For fear that you may give your honour to others, and your wealth to strange men:
10And strange men may be full of your wealth, and the fruit of your work go to the house of others;
11And you will be full of grief at the end of your life, when your flesh and your body are wasted;
12And you will say, How was teaching hated by me, and my heart put no value on training;
13I did not give attention to the voice of my teachers, my ear was not turned to those who were guiding me!
14I was in almost all evil in the company of the people.
