nkjv - Proverbs:7:5-23

nkjv@Proverbs:7:5 @ That they may keep you from the immoral woman, From the seductress who flatters with her words.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:7:7 @ And saw among the simple, I perceived among the youths, A young man devoid of understanding,

nkjv@Proverbs:7:8 @ Passing along the street near her corner; And he took the path to her house

nkjv@Proverbs:7:9 @ In the twilight, in the evening, In the black and dark night.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And there a woman met him, With the attire of a harlot, and a crafty heart.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She was loud and rebellious, Her feet would not stay at home.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:12 @ At times she was outside, at times in the open square, Lurking at every corner.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him and kissed him; With an impudent face she said to him:

nkjv@Proverbs:7:14 @ "I have peace offerings with me; Today I have paid my vows.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:15 @ So I came out to meet you, Diligently to seek your face, And I have found you.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have spread my bed with tapestry, Colored coverings of Egyptian linen.

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

nkjv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love until morning; Let us delight ourselves with love.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For my husband is not at home; He has gone on a long journey;

nkjv@Proverbs:7:20 @ He has taken a bag of money with him, And will come home on the appointed day."

nkjv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her enticing speech she caused him to yield, With her flattering lips she seduced him.

nkjv@Proverbs:7:22 @ Immediately he went after her, as an ox goes to the slaughter, Or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,

nkjv@Proverbs:7:23 @ Till an arrow struck his liver. As a bird hastens to the snare, He did not know it would cost his life.
