Proverbs 5- A Letter To My Sons

 Proverbs 5- 


A Letter To My Sons


My son, sit in close

Get your ears upright

For what I tell you

Will be good in your sight


There is a forbidden woman

Her talk is smoother than oil

Her lips ooze of honey

But deep inside her, evil boils 


Her feet lead to death

Her steps point to Hell

Her ways surely wander

For she is not well


Listen to me son

With all of your heart!

Do not get close to her

From my words do not depart


If you follow her

You will be consumed

Your life will be full of groaning

You will be building a living tomb


Instead, enjoy the wife of your youth

She should have your full delight

Be intoxicated by her sweet love 

The only woman in your sight


God, I wholly plead! 

On my young sons behalf

Keep their hearts pure

You who ponders their paths
