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.
