Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:

Remove your way far from her. Don’t come near the door of her house,

Proverbs 5:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.

7 So now, my sons, listen to me, and do not turn aside from the words of my mouth.

8 Keep your path far from her; do not go near the door of her house,

9 lest you concede your vigor to others, and your years to one who is cruel;

10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich the house of a foreigner.
