Proverbs 5:9-11
International Children’s Bible

9 If you do, you will give your riches to others.
    And the best years of your life will be given to someone who is cruel.
10 Strangers will enjoy your wealth.
    And what you worked so hard for will go to someone else.
11 You will groan at the end of your life.
    Then your health will be gone.
