Proverbs 23:25-33

²⁵Let thy father and thy mother have joy; Yea, let her that bore thee rejoice!

²⁶My son, give me thy heart, And let thine eyes observe my ways!

²⁷For a harlot is a deep ditch; Yea, a strange woman is a narrow pit.

²⁸Like a robber she lieth in wait, And increaseth the treacherous among men.

²⁹Who hath woe? Who hath sorrow? Who contentions? Who anxiety? Who wounds without cause? Who dimness of eyes?

³⁰They that tarry long at the wine; They that go in to seek mixed wine.

³¹Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, When it sparkleth in the cup, When it goeth down smoothly.

³²At the last it biteth like a serpent, And stingeth like an adder.

³³Thine eyes will look upon strange women, And thy heart will utter perverse things.
