Proverbs, Chapter 7

1 My son, keep my words
And treasure my commandments within you.
2 Keep my commandments and live,
And mya Or lawteaching as theb Lit pupilapple of your eye.
3 Bind them on your fingers;
Write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”
And call understanding your intimate friend;
5 That they may keep you from anc Lit strange womanadulteress,
From the foreigner whod Lit is smoothflatters with her words.
6 For at the window of my house
I looked out through my lattice,
7 And I saw among thee Lit simple onesnaive,
And discerned among thef Lit sonsyouths
A young man lackingg Lit heartsense,
8 Passing through the street near her corner;
And heh Lit stepstakes the way to her house,
9 In the twilight, in thei Lit evening of the dayevening,
In thej Lit pupil (of the eye)middle of the night and in the darkness.
10 And behold, a woman comes to meet him,
Dressed as a harlot and cunning of heart.
11 She is boisterous and rebellious,
Her feet do not remain at home;
12 She is now in the streets, now in the squares,
And lurks by every corner.
13 So she seizes him and kisses him
k Lit She makes bold her face and saysAnd with a brazen face she says to him:
14 “l Lit Sacrifices of peace offerings are with meI was due to offer peace offerings;
Today I have paid my vows.
15 “Therefore I have come out to meet you,
To seek your presence earnestly, and I have found you.
16 “I have spread my couch with coverings,
With colored linens of Egypt.
17 “I have sprinkled my bed
With myrrh, aloes and cinnamon.
18 “Come, let us drink our fill of love until morning;
Let us delight ourselves with caresses.
19 “Form Lit the manmy husband is not at home,
He has gone on a long journey;
20 He has taken a bag of moneyn Lit in his handwith him,
At the full moon he will come home.”
21 With her many persuasions she entices him;
With hero Lit smoothflattering lips she seduces him.
22 Suddenly he follows her
As an ox goes to the slaughter,
Or asp Or as a stag goes into a trap; so some ancient versionsone in fetters to the discipline of a fool,
23 Until an arrow pierces through his liver;
As a bird hastens to the snare,
So he does not know that it will cost him his life.
24 Now therefore, my sons, listen to me,
And pay attention to the words of my mouth.
25 Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways,
Do not stray into her paths.
26 For many are theq Lit mortally woundedvictims she has cast down,
And numerous are all her slain.
27 Her house is the way to Sheol,
Descending to the chambers of death.
