May 23【每日活水】远离恶人的道

警告勿犯淫乱

1 我儿，要留心我智慧的话语，侧耳听我聪明的言词，

2 为要使你谨守谋略，嘴唇保存知识。

3 因为淫妇的嘴滴下蜂蜜；她的口比油更滑，

4 至终却苦似茵陈，快如两刃的刀。

5 她的脚下入死地；她脚步踏住阴间，

6 以致她找不着生命平坦的道。她的路变迁不定，自己还不知道。

7 众子啊，现在要听从我；不可离弃我口中的话。

8 你所行的道要离她远，不可就近她的房门，

9 恐怕将你的尊荣给别人，将你的岁月给残忍的人；

10 恐怕外人满得你的力量，你劳碌得来的，归入外人的家；

11 终久，你皮肉和身体消毁，你就悲叹，

12 说：我怎么恨恶训诲，心中藐视责备，

13 也不听从我师傅的话，又不侧耳听那教训我的人？

14 我在圣会里，几乎落在诸般恶中。 

Warning Against Adultery

1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom, turn your ear to my words of insight,

2 that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.

3 For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil;

4 but in the end she is bitter as gall, sharp as a double-edged sword.

5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave.

6 She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.

7 Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say.

8 Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house,

9 lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel,

10 lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another.

11 At the end of your life you will groan, when your flesh and body are spent.

12 You will say, “How I hated discipline! How my heart spurned correction!

13 I would not obey my teachers or turn my ear to my instructors.

14 And I was soon in serious trouble in the assembly of God’s people.”
