My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life
Give not thy strength unto women, Nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
For many are the victims she has cast down, And numerous are all her slain.
For her lips drip honey, And smoother than oil is her speech
.
Words of King Lemeul and King Solomon from the Book of Proverbs.
