Do Not Commit Adultery Against Wisdom

Do Not Commit Adultery Against Wisdom

7 do not depart from the sayings of my mouth.
8  and do not go near to the door of her house,
9  and your years to the merciless,
10 their fill of your strength, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner,
11  when your flesh and body are consumed,
12  and I despised reproof!”
13  and I did not incline my ear to my instructors!
14 [fn] ruin[fn] in the midst of the assembly and congregation.”
15 own cistern and flowing waters from inside your own well.
16  In the streets, shall there be streams of water?
17  and not for strangers who are with you.
18  and rejoice in the wife[fn] of your youth.
19 She is a deer of love and a doe of grace; may her breasts satisfy you[fn]
by her love may you be intoxicated continually.
20  and embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
21 are[fn] and all his paths he examines.
22  and in the vanity of his sin he shall be caught.
23 [fn] discipline, and in the greatness of his folly he shall be lost.
