"lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man's house."
— Proverbs 5:10, World English Bible
“Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;”
“Lest strangers be filled with thy strength, And thy labors be in the house of an alien, ”
“lest strangers devour your strength, and your labor benefit another man’s house.”
“Lest strangers be filled with thy strength, and thy labours be in another man's house,”
“And strange men may be full of your wealth, and the fruit of your work go to the house of others;”
“Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;”
Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don't depart from the words of my mouth.
Remove your way far from her. Don't come near the door of her house,
lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one;
lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man's house.
You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
and say, "How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!
