Proverbs 22:13-15

Tree of Life Version

¹³The slacker says, “There’s a lion outside!
I’ll be killed in the streets.”

¹⁴The mouth of a seducing woman is a deep pit—
into it will fall one with whom Adonai is angry.

¹⁵Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child,
but a rod of discipline will drive it far from him.
