“Until an arrow strikes through his liver,as a bird hurries to the snare,and doesn’t know that it will cost his life.”
Proverbs 7:23 (WEB)
Context Reading
21With persuasive words, she led him astray.With the flattering of her lips, she seduced him. 22He followed her immediately,as an ox goes to the slaughter,as a fool stepping into a noose. 23Until an arrow strikes through his liver,as a bird hurries to the snare,and doesn’t know that it will cost his life. 24Now therefore, sons, listen to me.Pay attention to the words of my mouth. 25Don’t let your heart turn to her ways.Don’t go astray in her paths,
