Proverbs:7:5-23




acv@Proverbs:7:5 @ that they may keep thee from the interloping woman, from the stranger who flatters with her words.

acv@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice,

acv@Proverbs:7:7 @ and I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding

acv@Proverbs:7:8 @ passing through the street near her corner. And he went the way to her house,

acv@Proverbs:7:9 @ in the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the middle of the night and in the darkness.

acv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And, behold, there met him a woman attired like a harlot, and wily of heart.

acv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She is loud and headstrong. Her feet abide not in her house.

acv@Proverbs:7:12 @ Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, and lays in wait at every corner.

acv@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him,

acv@Proverbs:7:14 @ Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me. I have paid my vows this day.

acv@Proverbs:7:15 @ Therefore I came forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.

acv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.

acv@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

acv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning. Let us solace ourselves with love.

acv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For the man is not at home. He has gone a long journey.

acv@Proverbs:7:20 @ He has taken a bag of money with him. He will come home at the full moon.

acv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her much fair speech she causes him to yield. With the flattering of her lips she forces him along.

acv@Proverbs:7:22 @ He goes after her straightaway, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,

acv@Proverbs:7:23 @ till an arrow strikes through his liver, as a bird hastens to the snare. And he does not know that it is for his life.
