Proverbs 7:22-24
New Living Translation
Proverbs 7:22-24
New Living Translation
22 He followed her at once,
like an ox going to the slaughter.
He was like a stag caught in a trap,[a]
23 awaiting the arrow that would pierce its heart.
He was like a bird flying into a snare,
little knowing it would cost him his life.
24 So listen to me, my sons,
and pay attention to my words.
Footnotes
- 7:22 As in Greek and Syriac versions; Hebrew reads slaughter, as shackles are for the discipline of a fool.
