Proverbs 7

1My sonH1121, keepH8104 my wordsH561, and layH1121 upH6845 my commandmentsH4687 with thee. 2KeepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and liveH2421; and my lawH8451 as the appleH380 of thine eyeH5869. 3BindH7194 them uponH5921 thy fingersH676; writeH3789 them uponH5921 the table of thine heartH3820. 4SayH559 unto wisdomH2451, Thou art my sisterH269; and callH7121 understandingH998 thy kinswoman: 5That they may keepH8104 thee from the strangeH2114 womanH802, from the strangerH5237 whichH802 flattereth with herH802 wordsH561. 6For at the windowH2474 of my houseH1004 I lookedH8259 forth throughH1157 my latticeH822; 7And I beheld among the simple onesH1121, I discernedH995 among the youthsH5288, a youngH5288 manH5288 void of understandingH995, 8PassingH5674 throughH5674 the streetH1870 nearH681 herH1870 cornerH6438, and he wentH1004 the wayH1870 to herH1870 houseH1004; 9In the twilightH6153, in the eveningH6153 of the dayH3117, in the blackness of nightH3915 and the darknessH653. 10And, beholdH2009, there metH7125 him a womanH802 with the attire of an harlotH2181, and wily of heartH3820. 11SheH1931 is clamorous, and wilful; herH1931 feetH7272 abideH7931 notH3808 in herH1931 houseH1004: 12NowH6471 she is in the streetsH2351, nowH6471 in the broad placesH3605, and lieth in waitH693 at everyH3605 cornerH6438. 13SoH6440 sheH6440 caughtH2388 him, and kissedH5401 him, and with an impudent faceH6440 sheH6440 saidH559 unto him: 14SacrificesH2077 of peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 are with meH5921; this dayH3117 have I paid my vowsH5088. 15Therefore cameH3318 I forthH3318 to meetH6440 thee, diligentlyH7836 to seekH7836 thy faceH6440, and I have foundH4672 thee. 16I have spreadH7234 my couchH6210 with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of EgyptH4714. 17I have perfumed my bedH4904 with myrrhH4753, aloesH174, and cinnamonH7076. 18Come, let us take our fillH7301 of loveH1730 untilH5704 the morningH1242; let us solace ourselves with loves. 19For the goodman is notH369 at homeH1004, he is goneH1980 a longH7350 journeyH1870: 20He hath takenH3947 a bagH6872 of moneyH3701 with him; he will comeH935 homeH1004 at the fullH3117 moonH3677. 21With herH5186 muchH7230 fair speechH8193 sheH3948 causeth him to yield, with the flattering of herH5186 lipsH8193 sheH3948 forceth him awayH5186. 22He goeth afterH310 herH413 straightway, as an oxH7794 goeth to the slaughterH2874, or as fettersH5914 to the correctionH4148 of the foolH191; 23TillH5704 an arrowH2671 strike throughH413 his liverH3516; as a birdH6833 hasteth to the snareH6341, and knoweth notH3808 that it is for his lifeH5315. 24NowH6258 therefore, my sonsH1121, hearken unto meH1121, and attend to the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310. 25LetH408 notH408 thine heartH3820 decline to herH413 waysH1870, goH8582 notH408 astrayH8582 in herH413 pathsH5410. 26For sheH3588 hath castH5307 downH5307 manyH7227 woundedH2491: yeaH3588, allH3605 herH3605 slainH2026 are a mightyH6099 host. 27HerH413 houseH1004 is the wayH1870 to SheolH7585, goingH3381 downH3381 to the chambersH2315 of deathH4194.
