King James Version
"That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge."
— Proverbs 5:2, King James Version
“That thou mayest preserve discretion, And that thy lips may keep knowledge. ”
“that you may maintain discretion, that your lips may preserve knowledge.”
“in order to safeguard discretion, and that your lips may guard knowledge.”
“That thou mayst keep thoughts, and thy lips may preserve instruction. Mind not the deceit of a woman.”
“So that you may be ruled by a wise purpose, and your lips may keep knowledge.”
“That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.”
My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:
That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.
For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:
But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.
Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
