Proverbs 7:20-22
Legacy Standard Bible
20 He took a (A)bag of silver in his hand,
On the day of the full moon he will come home.”
21 With her abundant [a]persuasions she entices him;
With her (B)flattering lips she drives him to herself.
22 He suddenly follows her
As an ox goes to the slaughter,
Or [b]as one in fetters to the discipline of an ignorant fool,
