The Lips Of The Adulterous Woman
Proverbs 5:1-6

1
My son, pay attention to my wisdom,
turn your ear to my words of insight,
2
that you may maintain discretion
and your lips may preserve knowledge.
3
For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey,
and her speech is smoother than oil;
4
but in the end she is bitter as gall,
sharp as a double-edged sword.
5
Her feet go down to death;
her steps lead straight to the grave.
6
She gives no thought to the way of life;
her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.

Honey and Oil, Gall And Sword

Pay Attention To Wisdom
Proverbs 5:1-2

1
My son, pay attention to my wisdom,
turn your ear to my words of insight,

that you may maintain discretion
and your lips may preserve knowledge.

Why should you pay attention to Wisdom?
To be discrete
To pass down knowledge
