20:004:022 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all
           their flesh.

20:004:023 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the
           issues of life.

20:004:024 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far
           from thee.

20:004:025 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look
           straight before thee.

20:004:026 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be
           established.

20:004:027 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:  remove thy foot
           from evil.

20:005:001 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my
           understanding: 

20:005:002 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep
           knowledge.

20:005:003 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her
           mouth is smoother than oil: 

20:005:004 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.

20:005:005 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.

20:005:006 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are
           moveable, that thou canst not know them.

20:005:007 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the
           words of my mouth.

20:005:008 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her
           house: 

20:005:009 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto
           the cruel: 

20:005:010 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be
           in the house of a stranger;

20:005:011 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are
           consumed,

20:005:012 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised
           reproof;

20:005:013 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined
           mine ear to them that instructed me!

20:005:014 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and
           assembly.

20:005:015 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out
           of thine own well.

20:005:016 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in
           the streets.

20:005:017 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers’ with thee.

20:005:018 Let thy fountain be blessed:  and rejoice with the wife of thy
           youth.

20:005:019 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her
           breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always
           with her love.

20:005:020 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman,
           and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

20:005:021 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the lord, and he
           pondereth all his goings.
