Proverbs 7:22-24
English Standard Version
22 All at once he follows her,
as an ox goes to the slaughter,
or as a stag is caught fast[a]
23 till an arrow pierces its liver;
as (A)a bird rushes into a snare;
he does not know that it will cost him his life.
24 And (B)now, O sons, listen to me,
and be attentive to the words of my mouth.
