1 Hijo mío, presta atención a mi sabiduría. Escucha con cuidado mientras te explico el buen consejo, 2 para que puedas tomar buenas decisiones, y protejas el conocimiento con tus labios. 3 Porque los labios de una mujer inmoral pueden ser dulces como la miel; los besos de sus labios pueden ser suaves como el aceite, 4 pero al final lo que obtendrás de ella es la amargura de ajenjo y el dolor cortante de una espada de doble filo. 5 Ella te conducirá a la muerte, y te llevará hasta la tumba. 6 Ella no sigue el camino que conduce a la vida, sino que deambula sin saber que está perdida. 7 Ahora, hijo mío, escúchame. No rechaces lo que te he enseñado. 8 ¡Aléjate de ella! ¡No te acerques a su casa! 9 De lo contrario, estarás entregando tu honra a otros, y tu reputación quedará en manos de gente cruel. 10 Los extranjeros gastarán tu riqueza, y todo aquello por lo que has trabajado quedará en manos de otro. 11 Cuando llegues al fin de tus días, gemirás de dolor mientras la enfermedad destruye tu cuerpo. 12 Y dirás: “Oh, cómo aborrecía la disciplina, y mi mente aborrecía la corrección! 13 No escuché lo que mi maestro decía, ni presté atención a mis instructores. 14 Ahora estoy a punto de caer en total desgracia ante todos en la comunidad”. 15 Bebe agua de tu propia cisterna, agua viva de tu propio pozo. 16 ¿Por qué dejar que tus fuentes se esparzan por fuera, y tus fuentes de agua sean derramadas por las calles? 17 Guárdalas solo para ti, pues no son para compartirlas con extraños. 18 Que tus fuentes de aguas sean benditas, y que disfrutes de la mujer con quien te casaste en tu juventud. 19 Que ella sea para ti como una cierva amorosa, como una gacela llena de gracia. Que te intoxiques en sus pechos cada día, y te embriagues en su amor para siempre. 20 ¿Por qué dejarte intoxicar por una mujer inmoral? ¿Por qué aferrarte a los brazos de la mujer que actúa como prostituta? 21 Porque el Señor ve todo lo que las personas hacen, e investiga cada lugar donde van. 22 Los malvados quedarán atrapados por causa de sus malas acciones. Las cuerdas de sus pecados los atarán. 23 Morirán por su falta de dominio propio, y estarán perdidos por su gran insensatez.

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).

  1. Quotes verse 5:22 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book III, Chapter VII)

    … 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.

  3. Quotes verse 5:2–4 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LXXIII)

    … "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.

  4. Quotes verse 5:15 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XVI)

    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.
