Proverbs 5:1-6 ▼

1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, incline thine ear to my understanding;

2 that thou mayest keep reflection, and that thy lips may preserve knowledge.

3 For the lips of the strange woman drop honey, and her mouth is smoother than oil;

4 but her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.

5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on Sheol.

6 Lest she should ponder the path of life, her ways wander, she knoweth not [whither].
