Proverbs 7:22-27 Modern English Version (MEV)

22. He went after her straightway,as an ox goes to the slaughter,or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,

23. until a dart struck through his liver.As a bird hastens to the snare,he did not know that it would cost him his life.

24. Listen to me now therefore, O children,and attend to the words of my mouth:

25. do not let your heart turn aside to her ways,do not go astray in her paths;

26. for she has cast down many wounded,and many strong men have been slain by her.

27. Her house is the way to Sheol,going down to the chambers of death.
