Mishle 5:10-16 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

10. Lest zarim (strangers) be filled with thy koach; and thy toilings be in the bais nochri;

11. And thou mourn at the acharit (last, latter end, future), when thy basar and thy body are consumed,

12. And say, How have I hated musar, and my lev spurned tokhakhat (reproof);

13. And have not obeyed the voice of my morim (teachers), nor inclined mine ear to the ones who were my melamed!

14. I was at the brink of all rah (evil, ruin) in the midst of the kahal (congregation) and edah (assembly).

15. Drink mayim out of thine own bor (cistern), and running waters out of thine own well.

16. Should thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and channels of mayim in the rekhovot (town squares)?
