Proverbs 7:5

Modern English Version

that they may keep you from an adulteress, from the foreigner who flatters with her words.

See the chapter Copy

to deliver you from the wayward woman, from the adulteress who flatters with her words,

to keep you from the evil woman, from the flattering tongue of an adulteress.

For the lips of an adulteress drip as honey, and her speech is smoother than oil,

Why should you, my son, be intoxicated by an adulteress, and embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?

Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,” and call understanding your kin,

For at the window of my house I looked out through my lattice,

The mouth of an immoral woman is a deep pit; he who is under the wrath of the Lord will fall into it.

With her enticing speech she led him astray; with her flattering lips she seduced him.
