Proverbs 5:20-22
World English Bible

20 For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress?
    Why embrace the bosom of another?
21 For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes.
    He examines all his paths.
22 The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare him.
    The cords of his sin hold him firmly.
