Proverbs 5:3-15
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 For the lips of a loose woman[a] drip honey,
and her speech is smoother than oil,(A)
4 but in the end she is bitter as wormwood,
sharp as a two-edged sword.(B)
5 Her feet go down to death;
her steps follow the path to Sheol.
6 She does not keep straight to the path of life;
her ways wander, and she does not know it.
7 And now, my child,[b] listen to me,
and do not depart from the words of my mouth.(C)
8 Keep your way far from her,
and do not go near the door of her house,(D)
9 lest you give your honor to others
and your years to the merciless,
10 and strangers take their fill of your wealth,
and your labors go to the house of an alien,
11 and at the end of your life you groan,
when your flesh and body are consumed,
12 and you say, “Oh, how I hated discipline,
and my heart despised reproof!(E)
13 I did not listen to the voice of my teachers
or incline my ear to my instructors.
14 Now I am at the point of utter ruin
in the public assembly.”
15 Drink water from your own cistern,
flowing water from your own well.

3 For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey,
and her speech is smoother than oil;(A)
4 but in the end she is bitter as gall,(B)
sharp as a double-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death;
her steps lead straight to the grave.(C)
6 She gives no thought to the way of life;
her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.(D)
7 Now then, my sons, listen(E) to me;
do not turn aside from what I say.
8 Keep to a path far from her,(F)
do not go near the door of her house,
9 lest you lose your honor to others
and your dignity[a] to one who is cruel,
10 lest strangers feast on your wealth
and your toil enrich the house of another.(G)
11 At the end of your life you will groan,
when your flesh and body are spent.
12 You will say, “How I hated discipline!
How my heart spurned correction!(H)
13 I would not obey my teachers
or turn my ear to my instructors.
14 And I was soon in serious trouble(I)
in the assembly of God’s people.”(J)
15 Drink water from your own cistern,
running water from your own well.

He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice, 15 and when he heard me raise my voice and cry out, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.” 16 Then she kept his garment by her until his master came home, 17 and she told him the same story, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought among us, came in to me to insult me,(B) 18 but as soon as I raised my voice and cried out, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.”
