Proverbs 5:1-6
1My sonH1121, attendH7181 unto my wisdomH2451, and bowH5186 thine earH241 to my understandingH8394: 2That thou mayest regardH8104 discretionH4209, and that thy lipsH8193 may keepH5341 knowledgeH1847.
3For the lipsH8193 of a strange womanH2114 dropH5197 as an honeycombH5317, and her mouthH2441 is smootherH2509 than oilH8081:1 4But her endH319 is bitterH4751 as wormwoodH3939, sharpH2299 as a twoedgedH6310 swordH2719. 5Her feetH7272 go downH3381 to deathH4194; her stepsH6806 take holdH8551 on hellH7585. 6Lest thou shouldest ponderH6424 the pathH734 of lifeH2416, her waysH4570 are moveableH5128, that thou canst not knowH3045 them.
