Proverbs 7 (KJV) My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with
thee. {2} Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine
eye. {3} Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
{4} Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
{5} That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which
flattereth with her words. {6} For at the window of my house I looked through
my casement, {7} And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the
youths, a young man void of 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 met him a woman
with the attire of an harlot, and subtle of heart. {11} (She is loud and
stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: {12} Now is she without, now in the
streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) {13} So she caught him, and
kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, {14} I have peace
offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. {15} Therefore came I forth
to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. {16} I have
decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen
of Egypt. {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 solace
ourselves with loves. {19} For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long
journey: {20} He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the
day appointed. {21} With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with
the flattering of her lips she forced him. {22} He goeth after her
straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction
of the stocks; {23} Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to
the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life. {24} Hearken unto me now
therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. {25} Let not
thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. {26} For she hath
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 chambers of death.
