Berean Standard Bible

Proverbs 5:3-8

3Though the lips of the forbidden woman1 drip honey and her speech2 is smoother than oil,4in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a double-edged sword.5Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to Sheol.36She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.

7So now, my sons, listen to me,and do not turn aside from the words of my mouth.8Keep your path far from her;do not go near the door of her house,
