Proverbs 5:1-8 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom.Listen to my words of understanding.

2. Be careful to use good sense.Watch what you say.

3. The words of another man’s wife may seem sweet as honey.Her words may be as pleasant as olive oil.

4. But in the end she will bring you sorrow.She will cause you pain like a two-edged sword.

5. She is on the way to death.Her steps are headed straight to the grave.

6. She gives no thought to life.She does not know that her ways are wrong.

7. Now, my sons, listen to me.Don’t ignore what I say.

8. Stay away from such a woman.Don’t even go near the door of her house.
