Proverbs 23:26-28
Authorized (King James) Version

26 My son, give me thine heart,
and let thine eyes observe my ways.
27 For a whore is a deep ditch;
and a strange woman is a narrow pit.
28 She also lieth in wait as for a prey,
and increaseth the transgressors among men.

Proverbs 23:26-28
American Standard Version

26 My son, give me thy heart;
And let thine eyes [a]delight in my ways.
27 For a harlot is a deep ditch;
And a foreign woman is a narrow pit.
28 Yea, she lieth in wait [b]as a robber,
And increaseth the treacherous among men.
