lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel,
Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among many nations there was no king like him. He was loved by his God, who made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless, foreign women caused even him to sin.
Do not give your strength to women, nor your ways to those who destroy kings.
lest strangers be filled with your wealth, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner,
Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house,
for the price of a prostitute leaves a man with a loaf of bread, and an adulteress preys upon his precious life.
