Proverb Chapter 5

 Prov 5

Proverbs of David continues.... 

1 My Son, hearken to my wisdom - and incline your ears to my discernment/intelligence:

2 knowledge will preserve your inventions/plans, and guard your lips:

3 palate of the mouth of a stranger (woman) is like honeycomb that ooze out oil as her lips divides things- - 

4 - - as sharp as edge of sword and the end will be bitter as wormwood (accursed thing),

5 her paces is to descend to a place of death, and hades/sheol (world of the dead) will retain her feet:

6 her prepared/rolled-path of life is a track known to be shaking:

7 listen-up my son, you must turn away from the utterances of her mouth:

8 be far away from her way, even far away from coming near the door of your house:

9 for your excellency/grandeur will be given to another person, and your years to a cruel person. 

10 and strangers (women) will satiate your house, and the toil/labor of your strength (given) to a foreigners. 

11 you will growl at the end, when the remnants/swelling out of the flesh is brought to an end:

12 it is said, a heart that hates instruction - will despise correction:

13 hear the voice that is easily pointed out to you, and incline your ears to be trained/guided:

14 there is evil in the midst of fixture of crowds and few in the congregation:

15 even if there is bore-hole; drink water that has flow/poured down into the middle of your well;

16 water that is dispersed to rill/small channel outside, and fountain in the broad-street - 

17 - are of the strangers:

18 kneel to bless for your own spring, and make-merry with the wife of your youth- - 

19 - - and for her breast to satisfy your thirst always is by grace. Those who erred/are misled in the time of love, like the affection of hind/doe (female deer) with roe (male wild goat)- 

20 why will my son be misled, by strange woman, and be embraced in the bosom of a foreigner?

21 all eyes will be on the track of a man, if his way is prepared for the sake of Jehovah:

22 the wicked will be caught perversity, because he retain within measuring lines of  habitual-sin,

23 even if there is abundance of instructions - he can be misled and die by his silliness.
