Proverbs 22:14 Context
12The eyes of the Lord preserue knowledge, and he ouerthroweth the words of the transgressour. 13The slothfull man sayth, There is a lyon without, I shall be slaine in the streetes. 14The mouth of strange women is a deepe pit: he that is abhorred of the Lord shall fall therein. 15Foolishnesse is bound in the heart of a child: but the rod of correction shal driue it farre from him. 16Hee that oppresseth the poore to increase his riches, and he that giueth to the rich, shall surely come to want.
