Proverbs 5:6-10
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 5

6 She does not ponder the path of life; Her ways are unstable, she does not know it. 7Now then, my sons, listen to me And do not turn away from the words of my mouth. 8Keep your way far from her, And do not go near the door of her house, 9Otherwise you will give your vigor to others, And your years to the cruel one; 10And strangers will be filled with your strength, And your hard-earned possessions will go to the house of a foreigner;
King James Version

Chapter 5

6Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.
7Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
8Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:
9Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:
10Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 5

6She doesn’t consider the path of life; she doesn’t know that her ways are unstable. 7So now, sons, listen to me, and don’t turn away from the words from my mouth. 8Keep your way far from her. Don’t go near the door of her house. 9Otherwise, you will give up your vitality to others and your years to someone cruel; 10strangers will drain your resources, and your hard-earned pay will end up in a foreigner’s house.
New Living Translation

Chapter 5

6For she cares nothing about the path to life. She staggers down a crooked trail and doesn’t realize it.
7So now, my sons, listen to me. Never stray from what I am about to say: 8Stay away from her! Don’t go near the door of her house! 9If you do, you will lose your honor and will lose to merciless people all you have achieved. 10Strangers will consume your wealth, and someone else will enjoy the fruit of your labor.
English Standard Version

Chapter 5

6she does not ponder the path of life; her ways wander, and she does not know it. 7And now, O sons, listen to me, and do not depart from the words of my mouth. 8Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house, 9lest you give your honor to others and your years to the merciless, 10lest strangers take their fill of your strength, and your labors go to the house of a foreigner,
New International Version

Chapter 5

6She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it. 7Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say. 8Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house, 9lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel, 10lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another.
New King James Version

Chapter 5

6Lest you ponder her path of life— Her ways are unstable; You do not know them. 7Therefore hear me now, my children, And do not depart from the words of my mouth. 8Remove your way far from her, And do not go near the door of her house, 9Lest you give your honor to others, And your years to the cruel one; 10Lest aliens be filled with your wealth, And your labors go to the house of a foreigner;
