20 Why wylt thou my sonne haue pleasure in a straunge woman, and embrace the bosome of a straunger? Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress? Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man’s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?
21 For euery mans wayes are open in the sight of the Lord, and he pondereth all their goynges. For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and he ponders all his paths. For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths.
22 The wickednes of the vngodly shall catche him selfe, and with the snares of his owne sinne shall he be trapped. The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin. The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast.
23 He shall dye without amendement, and for his great foolishnes he shall go astray. He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray. For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly.
