Proverbs 7:21-27

²¹With her great persuasion she entices him;

with her flattering lips she lures him.

²²He follows her on impulse,

like an ox going to the slaughter,

like a deer bounding into a trap,

²³until an arrow pierces his liver,

like a bird darting into a snare —

not knowing it will cost him his life.

²⁴Now, my sons, listen to me,

and attend to the words of my mouth.

²⁵Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways;

do not stray into her paths.

²⁶For she has brought many down to death;

her slain are many in number.

²⁷Her house is the road to Sheol,

descending to the chambers of death.
