4And her latter end is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a sword with mouths.
5Her feet are going down to death, Sheol do her steps take hold of.
6The path of life — lest thou ponder, Moved have her paths — thou knowest not.
7And now, ye sons, hearken to me, And turn not from sayings of my mouth.
8Keep far from off her thy way, And come not near unto the opening of her house,
9Lest thou give to others thy honour, And thy years to the fierce,
10Lest strangers be filled with thy power, And thy labours in the house of a stranger,
11And thou hast howled in thy latter end, In the consumption of thy flesh and thy food,
12And hast said, 'How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,
13And I have not hearkened to the voice of my directors, And to my teachers have not inclined mine ear.
14As a little thing I have been all evil, In the midst of an assembly and a company.
15Drink waters out of thine own cistern, Even flowing ones out of thine own well.
16Let thy fountains be scattered abroad, In broad places rivulets of waters.
17Let them be to thee for thyself, And not to strangers with thee.
18Let thy fountain be blessed, And rejoice because of the wife of thy youth,
