Proverbs 5:3-8
3For the lips of an 12adulteress 3drip honey, And her 4speech is 5smoother than oil;4But in the end she is 6bitter as wormwood, 7Sharp as a two-edged sword.5Her feet 8go down to death, Her steps take hold of Sheol.69She does not ponder the 10path of life; Her ways are 11unstable, she 12does not know it.
713Now then, my sons, listen to me And 14do not turn away from the words of my mouth.815Keep your way far from her, And do not go near the 16door of her house,
