Proverbs 5:10-14 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

10. Strangers will use up all of your wealth. Your hard work will make someone else rich.

11. At the end of your life you will groan. Your skin and your body will be worn out.

12. You will say, "How I hated to take advice! How my heart refused to be corrected!

13. I would not obey my teachers. I wouldn't listen to those who taught me.

14. I was almost totally destroyed. It happened right in front of the whole community."
