Proverbs 7 Verses
1
|
My son, keep my words and store up my commandments within you. |
2
|
Keep my commandments and live; and keep my law as the pupil of your eye. |
3
|
Bind them upon your fingers; write them upon the tablet of your heart. |
4
|
Say to wisdom, You are my sister; and call understanding your kinsman, |
5
|
so that they may keep you from the strange woman, from the stranger who flatters with her words. |
6
|
For at the window of my house I looked through my lattice, |
7
|
and I saw among the simple ones, among the youths, a young man with no understanding, |
8
|
passing through the street near her corner. And he went the way to her house, |
9
|
in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night. |
10
|
And, behold, there a woman met him, with the dress of a harlot and a guarded heart. |
11
|
She is loud and stubborn; her feet do not stay in her house; |
12
|
now she is outside, now in the streets, and lies in wait at every corner. |
13
|
And she caught him and kissed him, and with a hard face she said to him, |
14
|
I have peace offerings with me; today I have paid my vows. |
15
|
so I came out to meet you, earnestly to seek your face, and I have found you. |
16
|
I have decked my bed with coverings, with striped cloths of Egyptian linen. |
17
|
I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. |
18
|
Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us delight ourselves with caresses. |
19
|
For my husband is not at home, he has gone on a long journey; |
20
|
he has taken a bag of silver with him and will come home at the day of the full moon. |
21
|
With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. |
22
|
He goes after her immediately, like an ox goes to the slaughter, or like a fool to the correction of the stocks; |
23
|
until a dart strikes through his liver; as a bird hastens to the snare and does not know that it is for his soul. |
24
|
And now listen to me, sons, and attend to the words of my mouth. |
25
|
Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, do not go astray in her paths. |
26
|
For she has cast down many wounded; yea, many strong men have been slain by her. |
27
|
Her house is the way to hell, going down to the rooms of death. |
