Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.
My son, attend unto my wisdom, [and] bow thine ear to my understanding:

For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] an honeycomb, and her mouth [is] smoother than oil:
But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, [that] thou canst not know [them].

Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:
