World English Bible
26 My son, give me your heart;
and let your eyes keep in my ways.
27 For a prostitute is a deep pit;
and a wayward wife is a narrow well.

and increases the unfaithful among men.

26 O my son, give me your heart.
May your eyes take delight in following my ways.

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.
