1 My child, be attentive to my wisdom, pay close attention to my understanding,

2 in order to safeguard discretion, and that your lips may guard knowledge.

3 For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey, and her seductive words are smoother than olive oil,

4 but in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
