Notes on this text (3)
- eBible.org's edition in the ekavian pronunciation (e.g. свет, грех); Karadžić and Daničić wrote in ijekavian (свијет, гријех).
- No deuterocanonical books.
- Chapter divisions follow the Hebrew Bible in Job 39–41, Ezekiel 20–21, Hosea 11–12 and Jonah 1–2 (verse numbers there differ from English Bibles).
1 Сине мој, слушај мудрост моју, к разуму мом пригни ухо своје,
1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Turn your ear to my understanding,
2 Да се држиш разборитости, и усне твоје да хране знање.
2 that you may maintain discretion, that your lips may preserve knowledge.
3 Јер с усана туђе жене капље мед, и грло јој је мекше од уља;
3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,
4 Али јој је последак горак као пелен, оштар као мач с обе стране оштар.
4 but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.
5 Ноге јој силазе к смрти, до пакла допиру кораци њени.
5 Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol.
6 Да не би мерио пут животни, савијају се стазе њене да не знаш.
6 She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it.
7 Зато, децо, послушајте мене, и не одступајте од речи уста мојих.
7 Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don’t depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Нека је далеко од ње пут твој, и не приближуј се к вратима куће њене,
8 Remove your way far from her. Don’t come near the door of her house,
9 Да не би дао другима славе своје и година својих немилостивоме,
9 lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one;
10 Да се не би туђинци наситили твог блага и труд твој да не би био у туђој кући,
10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man’s house.
11 И да не ридаш на послетку, кад се строши месо твоје и тело твоје,
11 You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
12 И кажеш: Како мрзих на наставу, и како срце моје презира карање!
12 and say, “How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof.
13 И не послушах глас учитеља својих, и не пригнух уха свог к онима који ме учаху!
13 I haven’t obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!
14 Умало не западох у свако зло усред збора и скупштине.
14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, among the gathered assembly.”
15 Пиј воду из свог студенца и што тече из твог извора.
15 Drink water out of your own cistern, running water out of your own well.
16 Нека се разливају твоји извори на поље, и потоци по улицама.
16 Should your springs overflow in the streets, streams of water in the public squares?
17 Имај их сам за се, а не туђин с тобом.
17 Let them be for yourself alone, not for strangers with you.
18 Благословен да је извор твој, и весели се женом младости своје;
18 Let your spring be blessed. Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19 Нека ти је као кошута мила и као срна љупка; дојке њене нека те опијају у свако доба, у љубави њеној посрћи једнако.
19 A loving doe and a graceful deer— let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love.
20 А зашто би, сине, посртао за туђинком и голио недра туђој,
20 For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom of another?
21 Кад су пред очима Господу путеви свачији, и мери све стазе његове?
21 For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes. He examines all his paths.
22 Безбожника ће ухватити његова безакоња, и у ужа греха својих заплешће се;
22 The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare him. The cords of his sin hold him firmly.
23 Умреће без наставе, и од мноштва лудости своје лутаће.
23 He will die for lack of instruction. In the greatness of his folly, he will go astray.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… in man." For He called all men that mourn; and granting forgiveness to those who had been led into captivity by their sins, He loosed them from their chains, of whom Solomon says, "Every one shall be holden with the cords of his own sins." Therefore did the Spirit of God descend upon Him, [the Spirit] of Him who had …
For it is even this Holy Spirit, whom the bad cannot receive, even He is that Fountain of which the Scripture saith, "Let the fountain of thy water be thine own, and let no stranger partake with thee." For all who love not God, are strangers, are antichrists.

… "Give not heed to a bad woman: for honey droppeth from the lips of a woman that is an harlot, which, for a season, is luscious unto thy throat; but afterwards thou shalt find it more bitter than gall, and sharper than a two-edged sword." Unto these last then let us listen, not unto those.

Let then thus much suffice concerning those outcasts; and now let us return to the divine Scriptures, and let us drink waters out of our own cisterns [that is, the holy Fathers ], and out of our own springing wells.

"The wicked shall be holden with the cords of his own sins." Thereby are they deceived, whereby they would deceive.
