New Testament

Proverbs 5:11-18 Common English Bible (CEB)

11. You will groan at the endwhen your body and flesh are exhausted,

12. and you say, "How I hated instruction!How my heart despised correction!

13. I didn’t listen to the voice of my instructor.I didn’t obey my teacher.

14. I’m on the brink of utter ruinin the assembled community."

15. Drink water from your own cistern,gushing water from your own well.

16. Should your fountains flood outside,streams of water in the public squares?

17. They are yours alone,not for you as well as strangers.

18. May your spring be blessed.Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
