Proverbs 5:2
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.
In context
1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom; incline your ear to my insight,
2 that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.
3 Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey and her speech is smoother than oil,
4 in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a double-edged sword.
