Proverbs 7:20-22
GOD’S WORD Translation
20 He took lots of money with him.
He won’t be home for a couple of weeks.”
21 With all her seductive charms, she persuades him.
With her smooth lips, she makes him give in.
22 He immediately follows her
like a steer on its way to be slaughtered,
like a ram hobbling into captivity
