lest strangers devour your strength, and your labor benefit another man's house.

He will not consider any compensation; he will not be willing, even if you multiply the compensation.

Do not give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which ruins kings.

Foreigners are consuming what his strenuous labor produced, but he does not recognize it! His head is filled with gray hair, but he does not realize it!

But when this son of yours came back, who has devoured your assets with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him!'
