Proverbs 23:26-28
New Living Translation
26 O my son, give me your heart.
May your eyes take delight in following my ways.
27 A prostitute is a dangerous trap;
a promiscuous woman is as dangerous as falling into a narrow well.
28 She hides and waits like a robber,
eager to make more men unfaithful.
Proverbs 23:26-28
Common English Bible
26 My child, give your mind to me
and let your eyes keep to my path.
27 A prostitute is a deep pit,
and a foreign woman is a narrow well.
28 Indeed, she ambushes like a robber
and increases the number of the faithless.
Proverbs 29:3
New Living Translation
3 The man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father,
but if he hangs around with prostitutes, his wealth is wasted.
Proverbs 29:3
Common English Bible
3 A man who loves wisdom makes his father rejoice,
but one who spends time with prostitutes destroys riches.
