I find

When Delilah realized that he had told her the whole truth, she sent this message to the Philistine leaders: “Come one more time, for he has told me the whole truth.” The Philistine leaders came to her and brought the money with them.

for her house sinks down to death
and her ways to the land of the departed spirits.

Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey
and her words are smoother than oil,

She seduces him with her persistent pleading;
she lures with her flattering talk.

But he doesn’t know that the departed spirits are there,
that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

The mouth of the forbidden woman is a deep pit;
a man cursed by the Lord will fall into it.

For a prostitute is a deep pit,
and a stranger is a narrow well;

Whoso pleaseth god

For to the man who is pleasing in His sight, He gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy, but to the sinner He gives the task of gathering and accumulating in order to give to the one who is pleasing in God’s sight. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
