New Testament

Proverbs 5:1-6 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom.Bend your ear to what I know,

2. so you might remain discreet,and your lips might guard knowledge.

3. The lips of a mysterious woman drip honey,and her tongue is smoother than oil,

4. but in the end she is bitter as gall,sharp as a double-edged sword.

5. Her feet go down to death;her steps lead to the grave.

6. She doesn’t stay on the way of life.Her paths wander, but she doesn’t know it.
