Proverbs 5:20-22
English Standard Version

20 Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with (A)a forbidden woman
    and embrace the bosom of (B)an adulteress?[a]
21 For (C)a man's ways are (D)before the eyes of the Lord,
    and he (E)ponders[b] all his paths.
22 The (F)iniquities of the wicked (G)ensnare him,
    and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.
