3 Give thou not attention to the falseness of a woman; for the lips of an whore be an honeycomb dropping, and her throat is clearer than oil;

4 but the last things [of her]be bitter as wormwood, and her tongue is sharp as a sword carving, or cutting, on each side.

5 Her feet go down into death; and her steps pierce to hells [or to hell].

6 Those [or they] go not by the path of life; her steps be uncertain, and may not be sought out.

7 Now therefore, my son, hear thou me, and go thou not away from the words of my mouth.

8 Make far thy way from her, and nigh thou not to the doors of her house.

9 Give thou not thine honour to aliens, and thy years to the cruel;
