Proverbs 5:1-5 New Century Version (NCV)

1. My son, pay attention to my wisdom;listen to my words of understanding.

2. Be careful to use good sense,and watch what you say.

3. The words of another man’s wife may seem sweet as honey;they may be as smooth as olive oil.

4. But in the end she will bring you sorrow,causing you pain like a two-edged sword.

5. She is on the way to death;her steps are headed straight to the grave.
