Proverbs 5:6 in other translations
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.
She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.
She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it.

In context
3 For the lips of a harlot are like a honeycomb dropping, and her throat is smoother than oil.
4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, and sharp as a two-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down into death, and her steps go in as far as hell.
6 They walk not by the path of life, her steps are wandering, and unaccountable.
7 Now, therefore, my son, hear me, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the doors of her house.
9 Give not thy honour to strangers, and thy years to the cruel.
