Proverbs 7:23
23 till an arrow pierces his liver ▼▼ The figure of an arrow piercing the liver (an implied comparison) may refer to the pangs of a guilty conscience that the guilty must reap along with the spiritual and physical ruin that follows (see on these expressions H. W. Wolff, Anthropology of the Old Testament).
– like a bird hurrying into a trap,
and he does not know that it will cost him his life. ▼
