8 Remove thy way far from her, and do not come near the door of her house,

9 lest thou give thine honour unto others and thy years unto the cruel,

10 lest strangers be filled with thy wealth, and thy labours be in the house of a stranger,

11 and thou mourn at the last when thy flesh and thy body are consumed

12 and say, How have I hated chastening and my heart despised reproof

13 and have not obeyed the voice of those who chastened me, nor inclined my ear to those that instructed me!

14 I have been in almost every kind of evil, in the midst of society and of the congregation.
