Proverbs 23:26-28
International Standard Version

26 Give me your heart, my son,
    and keep your eyes fixed on my ways,
27 because a prostitute is a deep pit,
    and the adulterous[a] woman a narrow well.
28 Surely she lies in wait like a bandit,
    increasing those who are faithless among mankind.
