Proverbs 22:15

Proverbs Of Solomon

¹⁴ The mouth of strange women is a deep hole: he with whom the Lord is angry will go down into it. ¹⁵ Foolish ways are deep-seated in the heart of a child, but the rod of punishment will send them far from him. ¹⁶ He who is cruel to the poor for the purpose of increasing his profit, and he who gives to the man of wealth, will only come to be in need.
