箴言 25:25
25:25 有好消息从远方来,
就如拿凉水给口渴的人喝。
箴言 5:1-15
5:1 我儿,要留心我智慧的话语,
侧耳听我聪明的言词,
5:2 为要使你谨守谋略,
嘴唇保存知识。
5:3 因为淫妇的嘴滴下蜂蜜,
她的口比油更滑,
5:4 至终却苦似茵陈,
快如两刃的刀。
5:5 她的脚下入死地,
她脚步踏住阴间,
5:6 以致她找不着生命平坦的道。
她的路变迁不定,
自己还不知道。
5:7 众子啊,现在要听从我,
不可离弃我口中的话,
5:8 你所行的道要离她远,
不可就近她的房门。
5:9 恐怕将你的尊荣给别人,
将你的岁月给残忍的人;
5:10 恐怕外人满得你的力量,
你劳碌得来的,归入外人的家。
5:11 终久,你皮肉和身体消毁,
你就悲叹,
5:12 说:“我怎么恨恶训诲,
心中藐视责备,
5:13 也不听从我师傅的话,
又不侧耳听那教训我的人?
5:14 我在圣会里,
几乎落在诸般恶中。”
5:15 你要喝自己池中的水,
饮自己井里的活水。
箴言 6:23-26
6:23 因为诫命是灯,法则(注:或作“指教”)是光,
训诲的责备是生命的道,
6:24 能保你远离恶妇,
远离外女谄媚的舌头。
6:25 你心中不要恋慕她的美色,
也不要被她眼皮勾引。
6:26 因为妓女能使人只剩一块饼,
罗马书 6:13
6:13 也不要将你们的肢体献给罪作不义的器具;倒要像从死里复活的人,将自己献给神,并将肢体作义的器具献给神。
Proverbs 25:25 (NIV)
Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.
Proverbs 25:25 (ESV)
Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country
Proverbs 5:1-15 (NIV)
1My son, pay attention to my wisdom, listen well to my words of insight,
2that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.
3For the lips of an adulteress drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil;
4but in the end she is bitter as gall, sharp as a double-edged sword.
5Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave.
6She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths are crooked, but she knows it not.
7Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say.
8Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house,
9lest you give your best strength to others and your years to one who is cruel,
10lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich another man’s house.
11At the end of your life you will groan, when your flesh and body are spent.
12You will say, “How I hated discipline! How my heart spurned correction!
13I would not obey my teachers or listen to my instructors.
14I have come to the brink of utter ruin in the midst of the whole assembly.”
15Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well.
Proverbs 6:23-26 (NIV)
23For these commands are a lamp, this teaching is a light, and the corrections of discipline are the way to life,
24keeping you from the immoral woman, from the smooth tongue of the wayward wife.
25Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes,
26for the prostitute reduces you to a loaf of bread, and the adulteress preys upon your very life.
Romans 6:13 (NIV)
13Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness.
