Proverbs:7:5-23




jub@Proverbs:7:5 @ That they may keep thee from the woman belonging to someone else, from the stranger [who] flatters with her words.

jub@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I looked through my casement

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

jub@Proverbs:7:8 @ passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,

jub@Proverbs:7:9 @ in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night;

jub@Proverbs:7:10 @ and, behold, a woman met him [with] the attire of a harlot, and subtil of heart.

jub@Proverbs:7:11 @ (She [is] loud and stubborn; her feet do not abide in her house:

jub@Proverbs:7:12 @ Now without, now in the streets, [she] lies in wait at every corner.)

jub@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him and kissed him [and] with an impudent face said unto him,

jub@Proverbs:7:14 @ I had promised sacrifices of peace; today I have payed my vows.

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

jub@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved [works], with fine linen of Egypt.

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

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

jub@Proverbs:7:19 @ For the husband [is] not at home; he is gone a long journey:

jub@Proverbs:7:20 @ He has taken a bag of money with him [and] will come home at the [appointed] feast day.

jub@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her much fair speech she caused him to yield; with the flattering of her lips she persuaded him.

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

jub@Proverbs:7:23 @ until the arrow pierces through his liver. [He is] as a bird struggling in the snare and not knowing that it [is] against his own life.
