Before · Proverbs 5:3–4

3For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil, 4but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.

5Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol.

After · Proverbs 5:6–7

6She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it. 7Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don’t depart from the words of my mouth.
