Verse 25 is found in chapter 7 of Proverbs. The narrator concludes by addressing the sons directly and expanding the particular case into a general warning. The heart must not turn toward the paths of the forbidden woman because her house leads to Sheol. The section summarizes a recurring teaching in Proverbs: sexual temptation is not merely an isolated moment, but a path whose direction must be discerned from the beginning.

Laß dein Herz nicht weichen auf ihren Weg und laß dich nicht verführen auf ihrer Bahn.
No se aparte a sus caminos tu corazón; No yerres en sus veredas.
Que ton coeur ne se détourne pas vers les voies d'une telle femme, Ne t'égare pas dans ses sentiers.
Il cuor tuo non dichini alle vie d’una tal donna; Non isviarti ne’ suoi sentieri.
Não se desvie para os caminhos dela o teu coração, e não te deixes perder nas suas veredas.
你的心不可偏向她的道, 不要誤入她的迷途。
