The Way of Folly
13 (A)The woman Folly is (B)loud;
she is seductive[a] and (C)knows nothing.
14 She sits at the door of her house;
she takes a seat on (D)the highest places of the town,
15 calling to those who pass by,
who are (E)going straight on their way,
16 (F)“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
And to him who lacks sense she says,
17 (G)“Stolen water is sweet,
and (H)bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”
18 But he does not know (I)that the dead[b] are there,
that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

Warnings Against Adultery
20 (A)My son, keep your father's commandment,
(B)and forsake not your mother's teaching.
21 (C)Bind them on your heart always;
(D)tie them around your neck.
22 (E)When you walk, they[a] will lead you;
(F)when you lie down, they will (G)watch over you;
and when you awake, they will talk with you.
23 For the commandment is (H)a lamp and the teaching a light,
and the (I)reproofs of discipline are the way of life,
24 to preserve you from the evil woman,[b]
from the smooth tongue of (J)the adulteress.[c]
25 (K)Do not desire her beauty in your heart,
and do not let her capture you with her (L)eyelashes;

fasten them around your neck.(C)

23 For this command is a lamp,
this teaching is a light,(D)

from the smooth talk of a wayward woman.(F)
25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty
or let her captivate you with her eyes.

and her speech[b] is (B)smoother than oil,
4 but in the end she is (C)bitter as (D)wormwood,
(E)sharp as (F)a two-edged sword.
5 Her feet (G)go down to death;
her steps follow the path to[c] Sheol;
6 she (H)does not ponder the path of life;
her ways wander, and she does not know it.
7 And (I)now, O sons, listen to me,
and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Keep your way far from her,
and do not go near the door of her house,
