9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived.

Proverbs 5:4-14
New King James Version
4 But in the end she is bitter as wormwood,
Sharp as a two-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death,
(A)Her steps lay hold of [a]hell.
6 Lest you ponder her path of life—
Her ways are unstable;
You do not know them.
7 Therefore hear me now, my children,
And do not depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Remove your way far from her,
And do not go near the door of her house,
9 Lest you give your [b]honor to others,
And your years to the cruel one;
10 Lest aliens be filled with your [c]wealth,
And your labors go to the house of a foreigner;
11 And you mourn at last,
When your flesh and your body are consumed,
12 And say:
“How I have hated instruction,
And my heart despised correction!
13 I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers,
Nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me!
14 I was on the verge of total ruin,
In the midst of the assembly and congregation.”

Proverbs 7:22-27
New King James Version
22 Immediately he went after her, as an ox goes to the slaughter,
Or [a]as a fool to the correction of the [b]stocks,
23 Till an arrow struck his liver.
(A)As a bird hastens to the snare,
He did not know it [c]would cost his life.
24 Now therefore, listen to me, my children;
Pay attention to the words of my mouth:
25 Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways,
Do not stray into her paths;
26 For she has cast down many wounded,
And (B)all who were slain by her were strong men.
27 (C)Her house is the way to [d]hell,
Descending to the chambers of death.

Proverbs 6:26-35
New King James Version
26 For (A)by means of a harlot
A man is reduced to a crust of bread;
(B)And [a]an adulteress will (C)prey upon his precious life.
27 Can a man take fire to his bosom,
And his clothes not be burned?
28 Can one walk on hot coals,
And his feet not be seared?
29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
Whoever touches her shall not be innocent.
30 People do not despise a thief
If he steals to satisfy himself when he is starving.
31 Yet when he is found, (D)he must restore sevenfold;
He may have to give up all the substance of his house.
32 Whoever commits adultery with a woman (E)lacks understanding;
He who does so destroys his own soul.
33 Wounds and dishonor he will get,
And his reproach will not be wiped away.
34 For (F)jealousy is a husband’s fury;
Therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35 He will [b]accept no recompense,
Nor will he be appeased though you give many gifts.
