Proverbs 7:22 in other translations
He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
He follows her on impulse, like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer bounding into a trap,
He followed her immediately, as an ox goes to the slaughter, as a fool stepping into a noose.

In context
19 Maana mume wangu hayupo nyumbani kwake; amekwenda safari ya mbali.
20 Alichukua mkoba wa fedha; atarudi siku ya mwezi mpevu.
21 katika maneno yake mengi akamshinda; na kwa midomo yake laini anampotosha.
22 Ghafula alimfuata kama maksai anayekwenda kwa mchinjaji, kama ayala aliyekamatwa kwa nguvu,
23 mpaka mshale upasue ini lake. Alikuwa kama ndege anayekimbili kwenye mtego. Hakujua kuwa itamgharimu maisha yake.
24 Na sasa, wanangu, nisikilizeni; zingatieni maneno ya kinywa changu.
25 Moyo wako usiyageukie mapito yake; usipotoshwe katika mapito yake.
