WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.940 Chapter 5 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding, 00:07.440 --> 00:11.580 that thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge. 00:12.100 --> 00:17.320 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than 00:17.320 --> 00:22.860 oil, but her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. 00:23.660 --> 00:27.320 Her feet go down to death, her steps take hold on hell. 00:27.980 --> 00:32.700 Lest thou shouldst ponder the path of life, her ways are movable, that thou 00:32.700 --> 00:33.860 canst not know them. 00:34.640 --> 00:38.940 Hear me now, therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. 00:39.660 --> 00:43.960 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house. 00:44.660 --> 00:48.280 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel. 00:48.980 --> 00:52.840 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth, and thy labours be in the house of a 00:52.840 --> 00:53.200 stranger. 00:53.200 --> 00:58.640 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, and say, 00:59.100 --> 01:04.420 How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof, and have not obeyed the 01:04.420 --> 01:08.160 voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me. 01:08.660 --> 01:12.640 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. 01:13.480 --> 01:17.800 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well. 01:17.800 --> 01:22.620 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. 01:23.320 --> 01:26.580 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers with thee. 01:27.020 --> 01:30.400 Let thy fountain be blessed, and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. 01:31.100 --> 01:33.620 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe. 01:34.220 --> 01:39.400 Let her breasts satisfy thee at all times, and be thou ravished always with her love. 01:40.180 --> 01:44.320 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the 01:44.320 --> 01:45.180 bosom of a stranger? 01:45.180 --> 01:50.980 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he pondereth all his goings. 01:51.500 --> 01:55.960 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the 01:55.960 --> 01:56.960 cords of his sins. 01:57.660 --> 02:02.340 He shall die without instruction, and in the greatness of his folly he shall 02:02.340 --> 02:02.940 go astray.
