Proverbs 5:10-16 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

10. Lest strangers be filled with thy strength, and thy labours be in another man's house,

11. And thou mourn it the last, when thou shalt have spent thy flesh and thy body, and say:

12. Why have I hated instruction, and my heart consented not to reproof,

13. And have not heard the voice of them that taught me, and have not inclined my ear to masters?

14. I have almost been in all evil, in the midst of the church and of the congregation.

15. Drink water out of thy own cistern, and the streams of thy own well:

16. Let thy fountains be conveyed abroad, and in the streets divide thy waters.
