Proverbs 7:11-27
11(She is loudH1993 and stubbornH5637; her feetH7272 abideH7931 not in her houseH1004: 12NowH6471 is she outsideH2351, nowH6471 in the streetsH7339, and lieth in waitH693 atH681 every cornerH6438.) 13So she caughtH2388 him, and kissedH5401 him, and with an impudentH5810 faceH6440 saidH559 to him,1 14I have peaceH8002 offeringsH2077 with me; this dayH3117 have I paidH7999 my vowsH5088.2 15Therefore I came forthH3318 to meetH7125 thee, diligently to seekH7836 thy faceH6440, and I have foundH4672 thee. 16I have deckedH7234 my bedH6210 with coveringsH4765 of tapestry, with carvedH2405 works, with fine linenH330 of EgyptH4714. 17I have perfumedH5130 my bedH4904 with myrrhH4753, aloesH174, and cinnamonH7076. 18ComeH3212, let us take our fillH7301 of loveH1730 until the morningH1242: let us solaceH5965 ourselves with lovesH159. 19For my husbandH376 is not at homeH1004, he is goneH1980 a longH7350 journeyH1870: 20He hath takenH3947 a bagH6872 of moneyH3701 with himH3027, and will comeH935 homeH1004 at the dayH3117 appointedH3677.34 21With her muchH7230 fair speechH3948 she caused him to yieldH5186, with the flatteringH2506 of her lipsH8193 she seducedH5080 him. 22He goethH1980 afterH310 her quicklyH6597, as an oxH7794 goethH935 to the slaughterH2874, or as a foolH191 to the correctionH4148 of the stocksH5914;5 23Till an arrowH2671 strikethH6398 through his liverH3516; as a birdH6833 hastethH4116 to the snareH6341, and knowethH3045 not that it is for his lifeH5315.
24Now therefore hearkenH8085 to me, O ye childrenH1121, and attendH7181 to the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310. 25Let not thy heartH3820 declineH7847 to her waysH1870, go not astrayH8582 in her pathsH5410. 26For she hath cast downH5307 manyH7227 woundedH2491: yea, many strongH6099 men have been slainH2026 by her. 27Her houseH1004 is the wayH1870 to hellH7585, going downH3381 to the chambersH2315 of deathH4194.
