⁶She gives no thought to the way of life;
her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.^(A)

⁷Now then, my sons, listen^(B) to me;
    do not turn aside from what I say.
⁸Keep to a path far from her,^(C)
    do not go near the door of her house,
⁹lest you lose your honor to others
    and your dignity^[a] to one who is cruel,
¹⁰lest strangers feast on your wealth
    and your toil enrich the house of another.^(D)
¹¹At the end of your life you will groan,
    when your flesh and body are spent.
