Proverbs 5:10

King James 2000

Lest strangers be filled with your wealth; and your labors go to the house of a foreigner;

See the chapter Copy

Whosoever loves wisdom rejoices his father: but he that keeps company with harlots wastes his substance.

Give not your strength unto women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings.

And you mourn at the last, when your flesh and your body are consumed,

Lest you give your honor unto others, and your years unto the merciless:

For by means of a harlot a man is reduced to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will prey upon his precious life.

He will not regard any ransom; neither will he be appeased, though you give many gifts.

Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knows it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knows not.

But as soon as this your son came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fatted calf.
