1 My son, give attention to my wisdom, Incline your ear to my understanding;

2 That you may observe discretion, And your lips may reserve knowledge.

3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey, And smoother than oil is her speech;

4 But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two-edged sword.

5 Her feet go down to death, Her steps lay hold of Sheol.
