Proverbs 5:14 in context

Proverbs 5:11–17

11

You will groan at your latter end,

when your flesh and your body are consumed,

12

and say, “How I have hated instruction,

and my heart despised reproof.

13

I haven’t obeyed the voice of my teachers,

nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!

14
Selected verse

I have come to the brink of utter ruin,

among the gathered assembly.”

15

Drink water out of your own cistern,

running water out of your own well.

16

Should your springs overflow in the streets,

streams of water in the public squares?

17

Let them be for yourself alone,

not for strangers with you.
