Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Proverbs 7
²³ Till an arrow struck his liver. As a bird hastens to the snare, He did not know it would cost his life.
²⁴ Now therefore, listen to me, my children; Pay attention to the words of my mouth:
²⁵ Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, Do not stray into her paths;
²⁶ For she has cast down many wounded, And all who were slain by her were strong men.
²⁷ Her house is the way to hell, Descending to the chambers of death.
Proverbs 8
¹ Does not wisdom cry out, And understanding lift up her voice?
² She takes her stand on the top of the high hill, Beside the way, where the paths meet.
³ She cries out by the gates, at the entry of the city, At the entrance of the doors:
⁴ "To you, O men, I call, And my voice is to the sons of men.
⁵ O you simple ones, understand prudence, And you fools, be of an understanding heart.
⁶ Listen, for I will speak of excellent things, And from the opening of my lips will come right things;
