1My son, attend to my wisdom, and apply thine ear to my words;
2that thou mayest keep good understanding, and the discretion of my lips gives thee a charge. Give no heed to a worthless woman;
3for honey drops from the lips of a harlot, who for a season pleases thy palate:
4but afterwards thou wilt find her more bitter than gall, and sharper than a two-edged sword.
