ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૫:૩
કારણ કે વ્યભિચારી સ્ત્રીના હોઠોમાંથી મધ ટપકે છે. અને તેનું મુખ તેલ કરતાં સુંવાળુ છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन ५:३
क्योंकि पराई स्त्री के होठों से मधु टपकता है, और उसकी बातें तेल से भी अधिक चिकनी होती हैं;

In context

1My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Turn your ear to my understanding,

2that you may maintain discretion, that your lips may preserve knowledge.

3For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,

4but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.

5Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol.
