1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom, and incline your ear to my prudence,
2. so that you may guard your thinking, and so that your lips may preserve discipline. Do not pay attention to the deceit of a woman.
3. For the lips of a loose woman are like a dripping honeycomb, and her voice is smoother than oil.
4. But in the end, she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.
5. Her feet descend into death, and her steps reach even to Hell.
6. They do not walk along the path of life; her steps are wandering and untraceable.
7. Therefore, my son, listen to me now, and do not withdraw from the words of my mouth.
8. Make your way at a distance from her, and do not approach the doors of her house.
9. Do not give your honor to foreigners, and your years to the cruel.
10. Otherwise, outsiders may be filled with your strength, and your labors may be in a foreign house,
