Proverbs 7:22-24
International Standard Version
22 All of a sudden he follows her
like an ox fit for slaughter
or like a fool fit for a trap[a]
23 until an arrow pierces his liver.
As a bird darts into a snare,
he doesn’t realize his fatal decision.[b]
24 So listen to me, my sons,
and pay attention to what I have to say.
