Proverbs 9:14-18
14For she sittethH3427 at the doorH6607 of her houseH1004, on a seatH3678 in the high placesH4791 of the cityH7176,
15To callH7121 passers-byH1870H5674 who go rightH3474 on their waysH734:
16Whoso is simpleH6612, let him turn inH5493 hither: and as for him that wantethH2638 understandingH3820, she saithH559 to him,
17StolenH1589 watersH4325 are sweetH4985, and breadH3899 eaten in secretH5643 is pleasantH5276.1
18But he knowethH3045 not that the deadH7496 are there; and that her guestsH7121 are in the depthsH6012 of hellH7585.
