Proverbs 6:24


Proverbs 6:23 Proverbs 6:24 (KJV) Proverbs 6:25
For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light; and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life:
To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
