Bible verse
She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.
Proverbs 5:6 · BSB
The verses around it, from Proverbs 5.
2 that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.
3 Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey and her speech is smoother than oil,
4 in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a double-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to Sheol.
6 She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.
7 So now, my sons, listen to me, and do not turn aside from the words of my mouth.
8 Keep your path far from her; do not go near the door of her house,
9 lest you concede your vigor to others, and your years to one who is cruel;
10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich the house of a foreigner.
KJV
Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, [that] thou canst not know [them].
ASV
So that she findeth not the level path of life: Her ways are unstable, and she knoweth it not.
ERV
So that she findeth not the level path of life: her ways are unstable and she knoweth it not.
