Proverbs 7:21 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 7:21

19 For¹ my husband is not at home;
He has gone on a long journey;

20 He has taken a bag of money¹ with him,
And will come home¹ on the appointed day.”

21 With ^aher enticing speech she caused him to yield,
^bWith her flattering lips she¹ seduced him.

22 Immediately he went after her, as an ox goes to the slaughter,
Or¹ as a fool to the correction of the² stocks,

23 Till an arrow struck his liver.
^aAs a bird hastens to the snare,
He did not know it¹ would cost his life.
