5 My son, pay attention to the wise things that I tell you!
Listen carefully to what I say you should understand!
2 Do this so that you will be able to choose wisely what to do,
and so that you will know the right things to say.
3 Do this because what adulterous women say seems delightful like the tase of honey.
Yes, their words are more soothing than how olive oil feels on your skin.
4 However, after being with such a woman you will be miserable, as if you had eaten a bitter plant.
You will suffer like a person whom someone has cut with a sharp, double-edged sword.
5 Being with such a woman will cause both of you to die.
Indeed, what she does with you will cause you to become dead people.
6 She does not want to do what will cause her to live well.
She does not realize that she lives precariously like someone who is walking on a broken path.
7 So now, children, pay attention to what I say!
Always remember what I have spoken to you!
8 Stay far away from any adulterous woman!
Do not even go near the door of the place where such a woman dwells!
9 If you go to such a woman, you will be giving the best efforts of your youth to others,
and a merciless person will take away everything that you would gain in the best time of your life.
10 If you go to such a woman, people you do not know will satisfy themselves with what you produced when you were strong,
and an outsider will fill his house with what you labored to gain.
11 Then you will groan when you are about to die
and have worn out your whole body.
12 Then you will say, “I hated it extremely when people corrected me!
Indeed, I scorned people when they rebuked me!
13 I did not obey the people who taught me.
Indeed, I did not listen carefully to the people who instructed me.
14 My people are close to considering me as someone who has wasted his life.”
15 So be like someone who only drinks water from his own well;
have sex with your wife only.
16 Do not be like someone who lets his water run out into the streets;
never have sex with other women!
17 Only have sex with your own wife!
Do not have sex with other women!
18 As a result, may Yahweh bless your marriage with children;
enjoy sexually the woman whom you married when you were young!
19 She is as beautiful as a loving deer and a graceful mountain goat.
Let her breasts satisfy you always.
Constantly be exhilarated by how she loves you.
20 My son, you should never be exhilarated by an adulterous woman!
You should never passionately caress an immoral woman!
21 Never do that because Yahweh fully knows what people do.
Indeed, he knows everything that people do.
22 The wicked things that wicked people do are like traps that catch them;
the sinful things that they do are like] ropes by which others can grab them.
23 Those wicked people will die because they did not discipline themselves.
They will do what kills them because they are extremely foolish.
