Revised Standard Version
Proverbs 6:24-26
Revised Standard Version
24 to preserve you from the evil woman,
from the smooth tongue of the adventuress.
25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart,
and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;
26 for a harlot may be hired for a loaf of bread,[a]
but an adulteress[b] stalks a man’s very life.
