Proverbs 7:5, 21-23

Proverbs 7:5 ESV

to keep you from the forbidden woman, from the adulteress with her smooth words.

Proverbs 7:21-23 ESV

With much seductive speech she persuades him; with her smooth talk she compels him. All at once he follows her, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a stag is caught fast till an arrow pierces its liver; as a bird rushes into a snare; he does not know that it will cost him his life.
