1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom, and incline your ear to my prudence, 2 so that you may guard your thinking, and so that your lips may preserve discipline. Do not pay attention to the deceit of a woman. 3 For the lips of a loose woman are like a dripping honeycomb, and her voice is smoother than oil. 4 But in the end, she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet descend into death, and her steps reach even to Hell. 6 They do not walk along the path of life; her steps are wandering and untraceable. 7 Therefore, my son, listen to me now, and do not withdraw from the words of my mouth. 8 Make your way at a distance from her, and do not approach the doors of her house.
