Proverbs 23:26-28
Modern English Version
Saying Eighteen
26 My son, give me your heart,
and let your eyes observe my ways.
27 For a prostitute is a deep ditch,
and a seductress is a narrow pit.
28 She also lies in wait as for a prey,
and increases the transgressors among men.

And let your eyes observe my ways.

And a seductress is a narrow well.
28 (B)She also lies in wait as for a victim,
And increases the unfaithful among men.

but he who keeps company with harlots spends his substance.

But a companion of harlots wastes his wealth.
