Proverbs 5:4
Compare all
2 That you may1 preserve discretion,
And your lips amay keep knowledge. 
3 aFor the lips of1 an immoral woman drip honey,
And her mouth is bsmoother than oil; 
4 But in the end she is bitter as wormwood,
Sharp as a two-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death,
aHer steps lay hold of1 hell. 
6 Lest you ponder her path of life—
Her ways are unstable;
You do not know them.
7 Therefore hear me now, my children,
And do not depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Remove your way far from her,
And do not go near the door of her house,
9 Lest you give your1 honor to others,
And your years to the cruel one; 
10 Lest aliens be filled with your1 wealth,
And your labors go to the house of a foreigner; 
11 And you mourn at last,
When your flesh and your body are consumed,
12 And say:
“How I have hated instruction,
And my heart despised correction!
13 I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers,
Nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me!
