Proverbs 7:20-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
20 He took a bag of money with him;
he will not come home until full moon.”
21 With much seductive speech she persuades him;
with her smooth talk she compels him.(A)
22 Right away he follows her
and goes like an ox to the slaughter
or bounds like a stag toward the trap[a]
