Proverbs:7:1 @
My son !
keep my sayings ,
And my commands lay up with thee .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:2 @
Keep my commands ,
and live ,
And my law as the pupil of thine eye .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:3 @
Bind them on thy fingers ,
Write them on the tablet of thy heart .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:4 @
Say to wisdom , '
My sister Thou [
art ].'
And cry to understanding , '
Kinswoman !'
ylt @
Proverbs:7:5 @
To preserve thee from a strange woman ,
From a stranger who hath made smooth her sayings .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:6 @
For ,
at a window of my house ,
Through my casement I have looked out ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:7 @
And I do see among the simple ones ,
I discern among the sons ,
A young man lacking understanding ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:8 @
Passing on in the street ,
near her corner ,
And the way [
to ]
her house he doth step ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:9 @
In the twilight --
in the evening of day ,
In the darkness of night and blackness .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:10 @
And ,
lo ,
a woman to meet him -- (
A harlot '
s dress ,
and watchful of heart ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:11 @
Noisy she [
is ],
and stubborn ,
In her house her feet rest not .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:12 @
Now in an out-place ,
now in broad places ,
And near every corner she lieth in wait ) --
ylt @
Proverbs:7:13 @
And she laid hold on him ,
and kissed him ,
She hath hardened her face ,
and saith to him ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:14 @'
Sacrifices of peace-offerings [
are ]
by me ,
To-day I have completed my vows .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:15 @
Therefore I have come forth to meet thee ,
To seek earnestly thy face ,
and I find thee .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:16 @[
With ]
ornamental coverings I decked my couch ,
Carved works --
cotton of Egypt .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:17 @
I sprinkled my bed --
myrrh ,
aloes ,
and cinnamon .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:18 @
Come ,
we are filled [
with ]
loves till the morning ,
We delight ourselves in loves .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:19 @
For the man is not in his house ,
He hath gone on a long journey .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:20 @
A bag of money he hath taken in his hand ,
At the day of the new moon he cometh to his house .'
ylt @
Proverbs:7:21 @
She turneth him aside with the abundance of her speech ,
With the flattery of her lips she forceth him .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:22 @
He is going after her straightway ,
As an ox unto the slaughter he cometh ,
And as a fetter unto the chastisement of a fool ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:23 @
Till an arrow doth split his liver ,
As a bird hath hastened unto a snare ,
And hath not known that it [
is ]
for its life .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:24 @
And now ,
ye sons ,
hearken to me ,
And give attention to sayings of my mouth .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:25 @
Let not thy heart turn unto her ways ,
Do not wander in her paths ,
ylt @
Proverbs:7:26 @
For many [
are ]
the wounded she caused to fall ,
And mighty [
are ]
all her slain ones .
ylt @
Proverbs:7:27 @
The ways of Sheol --
her house ,
Going down unto inner chambers of death !
