Proverbs 5:2 That thou mayst keep thoughts, and thy lips may preserve instruction. Mind not the deceit of a woman.

Thoughts. Or wisdom; and act with discretion. --- Mind, etc., is omitted in Hebrew and St. Jerome. (Calmet) --- By woman all concupiscence, or the inducement to sin, is commonly understood. We must not think of such things. (Worthington)
