The King James Version Bible

Proverbs 5:9-14

  1. Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:

  2. Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;

  3. And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,

  4. And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;

  5. And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!

  6. I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
