Proverbs 7:20-22
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
20 He has taken a bag of money with him and will come home at the day appointed [at the full moon].

22 Suddenly he [yields and] follows her reluctantly like an ox moving to the slaughter, like one in fetters going to the correction [to be given] to a fool or [a]like a dog enticed by food to the muzzle
