7 My son, keep my sayings
and store up my commandments with you.
2 Keep my commandments and live,
and my law as the pupil of your eyes.
3 Tie them on your fingers;
write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”
and call to understanding, “Kinsman,”
5 in order to keep you from the strange woman,
from the foreign woman who makes her sayings smooth.
6 For at the window of my house,
through the window lattice I looked down.
7 And I saw among the naive ones,
I discerned among the sons a young man lacking of heart
8 passing through the lane beside her corner,
and he steps in the way of her house,
9 in the twilight breeze, in the evening of day,
in the pupil of the night and darkness.
10 And behold, there is a woman to meet him,
with the garment of a prostitute and guarded of heart.
11 (She is a loud and rebellious one;
her feet do not stay in her house.
12 At one time in the street, at another time in the open areas,
and beside every corner she lies in wait.)
13 And she grabs him and kisses him,
she strengthens her face and says to him,
14 “The sacrifices of peace offerings are with me;
today I paid my vows.
15 Therefore, I came out to meet you,
to diligently seek your face, and I found you.
16 I have spread my couch with coverings,
colored linen of Egypt.
17 I have sprinkled my bed
with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
18 Come, let us be drenched with lusts until the morning;
let us delight ourselves with loves.
19 For the man is not in his house;
he went on a road far away.
20 He took the bag of the silver in his hand;
on the day of the full moon he will enter his house.”
21 She leads him astray with the abundance of her teaching;
with the smoothness of her lips she compels him.
22 Following after her suddenly,
like an ox to slaughter he goes,
and like an ankle chain to the correction of a fool,
23 until an arrow splits his liver,
like a bird rushing into a trap,
and he did not know that it was for his life.
24 And now, sons, listen to me;
and listen attentively to the sayings of my mouth.
25 Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways;
do not wander into her tracks.
26 For she has caused many pierced ones to fall,
and numerous are all her slain ones.
27 Her house is the ways of Sheol,
descending to the rooms of death.
