Proverbs 6:20-25
201My son, comply with the commandment of your father, And do not ignore the 2teaching of your mother;213Bind them continually on your heart; Tie them around your neck.22When you 4walk, 5they will guide you; When you sleep, 6they will watch over you; And when you awake, 7they will talk to you.23For 8the commandment is a lamp and the 9teaching is light; And rebukes for discipline are the way of life24To 10keep you from the evil woman, From the smooth tongue of the foreign woman.2511Do not desire her beauty in your heart, Nor let her capture you with her 12eyelids.
