Proverbs 5:20-23
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
20For why should you, my son, be exhilarated with an adulteress, And embrace the breasts of a foreigner? 21For the ways of everyone are before the eyes of the Lord, And He observes all his paths. 22His own wrongdoings will trap the wicked, And he will be held by the ropes of his sin. 23He will die for lack of instruction, And in the greatness of his foolishness he will go astray.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 5
20Why, my son, would you lose yourself with a forbidden woman or embrace a wayward woman? 21For a man’s ways are before the Lord’s eyes, and he considers all his paths. 22A wicked man’s iniquities will trap him; he will become tangled in the ropes of his own sin. 23He will die because there is no discipline, and be lost because of his great stupidity.New Living Translation
English Standard Version
Chapter 5
20Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress? 21For a man 's ways are before the eyes of the Lord, and he ponders all his paths. 22The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin. 23 He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.New International Version
Chapter 5
20Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man’s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman? 21For your ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all your paths. 22The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast. 23For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly.New King James Version
