Contextual Overview

1 My sonne geue heede vnto my wisdome, and bowe thyne eare vnto my prudence: 2 That thou mayest regarde good counsell, and that thy lippes may kepe knowledge. 3 For the lippes of a straunge woman are a dropping hony combe, and her throte is more glistering then oyle: 4 But at the laste she is as bitter as wormewood, and as sharpe as a two edged sworde. 5 Her feete go downe vnto death, and her steppes pearce thorowe vnto hell. 6 Perchaunce thou wylt ponder the path of her lyfe: so vnstedfast are her wayes that thou canst not know them. 7 Heare me nowe therefore O ye chyldren, and depart not from the wordes of my mouth. 8 Kepe thy way farre from her, & come not nigh the doores of her house. 9 That thou geue not thy honour vnto other, and thy yeres to the cruell: 10 That other men be not filled with thy vertues, and that thy labours come not in a straunge house.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Hear me now therefore, O ye children,.... Since such is the character, this the wretched end, and these the ways of the adulterous woman; those that are young in years, and liable to be ensnared by her, should hear what Solomon, or Christ, here says, for their caution and instruction; and especially such who are, or profess themselves to be, the children of God and of Christ; and therefore, as dear children, should be followers of them, and not of an harlot;

and depart not from the words of my mouth; the warnings, directions, and exhortations given to avoid the whorish woman; the doctrines of Christ, the truths of the Gospel: these should not be forsaken, but abode by; and also his precepts and ordinances, which should be closely attended unto.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 5:7. Hear me - O ye children — בנים banim, sons, young men in general: for these are the most likely to be deceived and led astray.
