He who loves wisdom gladdens his father, But a companion of whores destroys wealth.
Do not give your strength to women, Nor your ways to wiping away sovereigns.
Then you shall howl in your latter end, When your flesh and your body are consumed,
Lest you give your splendour to others, And your years to one who is cruel;
For because of a whore One is brought to a crust of bread. And an adulteress hunts a precious life.
He does not regard any ransom, Nor accept your bribe, however great!
“Strangers have devoured his strength, but he does not know it. Grey hairs are also sprinkled on him, and he does not know it.
But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with whores, you slaughtered the fattened calf for him.’
