Proverbs 5

5My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:H1121H7181H2451H5186H241H83942That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.H8104H4209H8193H5341H18473For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:H8193H2114H5197H5317H2441H2509H80814But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.H319H4751H3939H2299H6310H27195Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.H7272H3381H4194H6806H8551H75856Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.H6424H734H2416H4570H5128H30457Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.H8085H1121H5493H561H63108Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:H7368H1870H7368H7126H6607H10049Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:H5414H1935H312H8141H39410Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;H2114H7646H3581H6089H1004H523711And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,H5098H319H1320H7607H361512And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;H559H8130H4148H3820H5006H843313And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!H8085H6963H3384H5186H241H392514I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.H4592H7451H8432H6951H571215Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.H8354H4325H953H5140H8432H87516Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.H4599H6327H2351H6388H4325H733917Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.H211418Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.H4726H1288H8055H802H527119Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.H158H365H2580H3280H1717H7301H6256H7686H8548H16020And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?H1121H7686H2114H2263H2436H523721For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.H1870H376H5227H5869H3068H6424H457022His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.H5771H3920H7563H8551H2256H240323He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.H4191H4148H7230H200H7686

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
