Proverbs 7:20-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

20. he has taken a bag of money with him,and will come home at the day appointed.”

21. With her enticing speech she caused him to yield,with the flattering of her lips she seduced him.

22. He went after her straightway,as an ox goes to the slaughter,or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,

23. until a dart struck through his liver.As a bird hastens to the snare,he did not know that it would cost him his life.
