Proverbs 23:4-34 - ESV - Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning en...

4 ¹Do not toil to acquire wealth; ²be discerning enough to desist.

5 When your eyes light on it, it is gone, ³for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven.

6 ⁴Do not eat the bread of a man who is ⁵stingy;^a ⁶do not desire his delicacies,

7 for he is like one who is inwardly calculating.^b "Eat and drink!" he says to you, but his ⁷heart is not with you.

8 You will vomit up the morsels that you have eaten, and waste your pleasant words.

9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool, for he will despise the good sense of your words.

10 ⁸Do not move an ancient landmark or enter the fields of the fatherless,

11 for their ⁹Redeemer is strong; he will ¹⁰plead their cause against you.

12 Apply your heart to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge.

13 Do not withhold ¹¹discipline from a child; ¹²if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.

14 If you strike him with the rod, you will ¹³save his soul from Sheol.

15 ¹⁴My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad.

16 My ¹⁵inmost being^c will exult when your lips speak ¹⁶what is right.

17 Let not your heart ¹⁷envy sinners, but continue in ¹⁸the fear of the LORD all the day.

18 Surely ¹⁹there is a future, and your ²⁰hope will not be cut off.

19 Hear, my son, and ²¹be wise, and ²²direct your heart in the way.

20 Be not among ²³drunkards^d or among ²⁴gluttonous eaters of meat,

21 for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and ²⁵slumber will clothe them with rags

22 ²⁶Listen to your father who gave you life, ²⁷and do not despise your mother when she is old.

23 ²⁸Buy truth, and do not sell it; buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.

24 ²⁹The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.

25 ³⁰Let your father and mother be glad; let ³¹her who bore you rejoice.

26 My son, give me your heart, and let your eyes observe^e my ways.

27 For a prostitute is ³²a deep pit; ³³an adulteress^f is a narrow ³⁴well.

28 ³⁵She lies in wait like a robber and increases the traitors among mankind.

29 ³⁶Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaining? Who has ³⁷wounds without cause? Who has ³⁸redness of eyes?

30 Those who ³⁹tarry long over wine; those who go to try ⁴⁰mixed wine.

31 Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly.

32 In the end it ⁴¹bites like a serpent and stings like an adder.

33 Your eyes will see strange things, and your heart utter ⁴²perverse things.

34 You will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea, like one who lies on the top of a mast.^g
