Context
Admonition to Avoid Seduction to Evil
5:1 My child , be attentive to my wisdom , pay close attention to my understanding ,
5:2 in order to safeguard discretion , and that your lips may guard knowledge .
5:3 For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey , and her seductive words are smoother than olive oil ,
5:4 but in the end she is bitter as wormwood , sharp as a two-edged sword .
5:5 Her feet go down to death ; her steps lead straight to the grave .
5:6 Lest she should make level the path leading to life , her paths are unstable but she does not know it.
5:7 So now , children , listen to me; do not turn aside from the words I speak .
5:8 Keep yourself far from her, and do not go near the door of her house ,
5:9 lest you give your vigor to others and your years to a cruel person,
