Proverbs 6:24
To keep thee from the evil woman, From the flattery of the foreigner’s tongue.
-
Ecclesiastes 7:26
And I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.

Proverbs 23:27
For a harlot is a deep ditch; And a foreign woman is a narrow pit.
-
Proverbs 7:5-23
That they may keep thee from the strange woman, From the foreigner that flattereth with her words.For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice;And I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.And, behold, there met him a woman With the attire of a harlot, and wily of heart.( She is clamorous and wilful; Her feet abide not in her house:Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lieth in wait at every corner.)So she caught him, and kissed him, And with an impudent face she said unto him:Sacrifices of peace- offerings are with me; This day have I paid my vows.Therefore came I forth to meet thee, Diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, With striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; Let us solace ourselves with loves.For the man is not at home; He is gone a long journey:He hath taken a bag of money with him; He will come home at the full moon.With her much fair speech she causeth him to yield; With the flattering of her lips she forceth him along.He goeth after her straightway, As an ox goeth to the slaughter, Or as one in fetters to the correction of the fool;Till an arrow strike through his liver; As a bird hasteth to the snare, And knoweth not that it is for his life.

Genesis 39:3-12
And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.And Joseph found favor in his sight, and he ministered unto him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.And it came to pass from the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand; and he knew not aught that was with him, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was comely, and well- favored.And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master knoweth not what is with me in the house, and he hath put all that he hath into my hand:he is not greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back anything from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.And it came to pass about this time, that he went into the house to do his work; and there was none of the men of the house there within.And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.

Proverbs 22:14
The mouth of strange women is a deep pit; He that is abhorred of Jehovah shall fall therein.

Proverbs 5:3-20
For the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And her mouth is smoother than oil:But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two- edged sword.Her feet go down to death; Her steps take hold on Sheol;So that she findeth not the level path of life: Her ways are unstable, and she knoweth it not.Now therefore, my sons, hearken unto me, And depart not from the words of my mouth.Remove thy way far from her, And come not nigh the door of her house;Lest thou give thine honor unto others, And thy years unto the cruel;Lest strangers be filled with thy strength, And thy labors be in the house of an alien,And thou mourn at thy latter end, When thy flesh and thy body are consumed,And say, How have I hated instruction, And my heart despised reproof;Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!I was well- nigh in all evil In the midst of the assembly and congregation.Drink waters out of thine own cistern, And running waters out of thine own well.Should thy springs be dispersed abroad, And streams of water in the streets?Let them be for thyself alone, And not for strangers with thee.Let thy fountain be blessed; And rejoice in the wife of thy youth.As a loving hind and a pleasant doe, Let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; And be thou ravished always with her love.For why shouldest thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?

Proverbs 29:5
A man that flattereth his neighbor Spreadeth a net for his steps.

Nehemiah 13:26-27
Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, and he was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did foreign women cause to sin.Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God in marrying foreign women?
