In context

1 My son, attend to my wisdom, [and] bow thy ear to my understanding:

2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and [that] thy lips may keep knowledge.

3 For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] a honey-comb, and her mouth [is] smoother than oil:

4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.

5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.

6 Lest thou shouldst ponder the path of life, her ways are movable, [that] thou canst not know [them].

7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
