РСП (66 кн.) Ибо мед источают уста чужой жены, и мягче елея речь ее;
НРП Ведь уста чужой жены сочатся медом, и речь ее — мягче масла;
Заокская (Кулаков) ибо мед сочится с уст чужой жены, речи ее льются, словно масло.
ВП Уста чужой жены сочатся мёдом, и речь её — мягче масла;
СП (БЛ) Слова жены другого человека могут быть соблазнительны, а поцелуи — сладки и нежны.
