Proverbs 5 :
1. Listen to me, my son! I know what I am saying; listen!
2. Watch yourself, lest you be indiscreet and betray some vital information.
3. For the lips of a prostitute are as sweet as honey, and smooth flattery is her stock in trade.
4. But afterwards only a bitter conscience is left to you, sharp as a double-edged sword.
5. She leads you down to death and hell.
6. For she does not know the path to life. She staggers down a crooked trail, and doesn't even realize where it leads.
7. Young men, listen to me, and never forget what I'm about to say:
8. Run from her! Don't go near her house,
9. lest you fall to her temptation and lose your honor, and give the remainder of your life to the cruel and merciless;
10. lest strangers obtain your wealth, and you become a slave of foreigners.
11. Lest afterwards you groan in anguish and in shame, when syphilis consumes your body,
12. and you say, "Oh, if only I had listened! If only I had not demanded my own way!
13. Oh, why wouldn't I take advice? Why was I so stupid?
14. For now I must face public disgrace."

You'll find a new thought here
every morning,
from God's Word
so visit us again tomorrow!
