Proverbs 5:20-23

English Standard Version

²⁰ Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with ^(A)a forbidden woman
    and embrace the bosom of ^(B)an adulteress?^[a]
21 For ^(C)a man's ways are ^(D)before the eyes of the Lord,
    and he ^(E)ponders^[b] all his paths.
²² The ^(F)iniquities of the wicked ^(G)ensnare him,
    and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.
^23 (H)He dies for lack of discipline,
    and because of his great folly he is ^(I)led astray.
