3For the lips of ca forbidden ▼
▼Hebrew strange; also verse 20

is fsmoother than oil,4but in the end she is gbitter as hwormwood,
isharp as ja two-edged sword.
5Her feet kgo down to death;
her steps follow the path to ▼
▼Hebrew lay hold of

her ways wander, and she does not know it.
7 And nnow, O sons, listen to me,
and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
