Proverbs 5:6-10

⁶Those go not by the path of life; her steps be uncertain, and may not be sought out. (They do not go on the path of life; her steps be uncertain, and should not be followed.)

⁷Now therefore, my son, hear thou me, (or And so now, my son, listen to me), and go thou not away from the words of my mouth.

⁸Make far thy way from her (or Make thy way far away from her), and nigh thou not to the doors of her house.

⁹Give thou not thine honour to aliens (or Give thou not thy honour to strangers), and thy years to the cruel;

¹⁰lest peradventure strangers be filled with thy strengths, and lest (the rewards of) thy travails be in an alien’s house; (lest perhaps strangers take all thy wealth, and the rewards of all thy efforts be in someone else’s house;)
