Proverbs 7:21-23

Jubilee Bible 2000

²¹ With her much fair speech she caused him to yield; with the flattering of her lips she persuaded him.

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 the arrow pierces through his liver. He is as a bird struggling in the snare and not knowing that it is against his own life.
