Proverbs 7:25

Bible in Basic English 1965

Let not your heart be turned to her ways, do not go wandering in her footsteps.

See the chapter Copy

I have gone out of the way like a wandering sheep; make search for your servant; for I keep your teachings ever in mind.

He will come to his end for need of teaching; he is so foolish that he will go wandering from the right way.

Go far away from her, do not come near the door of her house;

Let not your heart's desire go after her fair body; let not her eyes take you prisoner.

For those wounded and made low by her are great in number; and all those who have come to their death through her are a great army.

Crying out to those who go by, going straight on their way, she says:

We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.

But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.
