Proverbs 7:21-23
American Standard Version
21 With her much fair speech she causeth him to yield;
With the flattering of her lips she forceth him along.
22 He goeth after her [a]straightway,
As an ox goeth to the slaughter,
Or as one in [b]fetters to the correction of the fool;
23 Till an arrow strike through his liver;
As a bird hasteth to the snare,
And knoweth not that it is for his life.
