Proverbs 5:1-6
1My son, 1give attention to my wisdom, 2Incline your ear to my understanding;2That you may 3observe discretion And your 4lips may reserve knowledge.3For the lips of an 56adulteress 7drip honey And 8smoother than oil is her 9speech;4But in the end she is 10bitter as wormwood, 11Sharp as a two-edged sword.5Her feet 12go down to death, Her steps take hold of Sheol.613She does not ponder the 14path of life; Her ways are 15unstable, she 16does not know it.
