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.

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,
