10. Lest strangers be filled with thy strength; and thy labours be in the house of an alien;
11. And thou mourn at thy latter end, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
12. And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
13. Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
14. I was well nigh in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
15. Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
16. Should thy springs be dispersed abroad, and rivers of water in the streets?
17. Let them be for thyself alone, and not for strangers with thee.
18. Let thy fountain be blessed; and rejoice in the wife of thy youth.
