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