Proverbs 5:2-4
Revised Standard Version
Proverbs 5:2-4
Revised Standard Version
2 that you may keep discretion,
and your lips may guard knowledge.
3 For the lips of a loose woman drip honey,
and her speech[a] is smoother than oil;
4 but in the end she is bitter as wormwood,
sharp as a two-edged sword.
