Proverbs 5:3-20

5:3

For the lips
<08193>

of a strange woman
<02114> (8801)

drop
<05197> (8799)

[as] an honeycomb
<05317>_,

and her mouth
<02441>

[is] smoother
<02509>

than oil
<08081>_:

{mouth: Heb. palate}

5:4

But her end
<0319>

is bitter
<04751>

as wormwood
<03939>_,

sharp
<02299>

as a twoedged
<06310>

sword
<02719>_.

5:5

Her feet
<07272>

go down
<03381> (8802)

to death
<04194>_;

her steps
<06806>

take hold
<08551> (8799)

on hell
<07585>_.

5:6

Lest thou shouldest ponder
<06424> (8762)

the path
<0734>

of life
<02416>_,

her ways
<04570>

are moveable
<05128> (8804)_,

[that] thou canst not know
<03045> (8799)

[them].

5:7

Hear
<08085> (8798)

me now therefore, O ye children
<01121>_,

and depart
<05493> (8799)

not from the words
<0561>

of my mouth
<06310>_.

5:8

Remove
<07368> (0)

thy way
<01870>

far
<07368> (8685)

from her, and come not nigh
<07126> (8799)

the door
<06607>

of her house
<01004>_:

5:9

Lest thou give
<05414> (8799)

thine honour
<01935>

unto others
<0312>_,

and thy years
<08141>

unto the cruel
<0394>_:

5:10

Lest strangers
<02114> (8801)

be filled
<07646> (8799)

with thy wealth
<03581>_;

and thy labours
<06089>

[be] in the house
<01004>

of a stranger
<05237>_;

{thy wealth: Heb. thy strength}

5:11

And thou mourn
<05098> (8804)

at the last
<0319>_,

when thy flesh
<01320>

and thy body
<07607>

are consumed
<03615> (8800)_,

5:12

And say
<0559> (8804)_,

How have I hated
<08130> (8804)

instruction
<04148>_,

and my heart
<03820>

despised
<05006> (8804)

reproof
<08433>_;

5:13

And have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of my teachers
<03384> (8688)_,

nor inclined
<05186> (8689)

mine ear
<0241>

to them that instructed
<03925> (8764)

me!

5:14

I was almost
<04592>

in all evil
<07451>

in the midst
<08432>

of the congregation
<06951>

and assembly
<05712>_.

5:15

Drink
<08354> (8798)

waters
<04325>

out of thine own cistern
<0953>_,

and running waters
<05140> (8802)

out of
<08432>

thine own well
<0875>_.

5:16

Let thy fountains
<04599>

be dispersed
<06327> (8799)

abroad
<02351>_,

[and] rivers
<06388>

of waters
<04325>

in the streets
<07339>_.

5:17

Let them be only thine own, and not strangers
<02114> (8801)_'

with thee.

5:18

Let thy fountain
<04726>

be blessed
<01288> (8803)_:

and rejoice
<08055> (8798)

with the wife
<0802>

of thy youth
<05271>_.

5:19

[Let her be as] the loving
<0158>

hind
<0365>

and pleasant
<02580>

roe
<03280>_;

let her breasts
<01717>

satisfy
<07301> (8762)

thee at all times
<06256>_;

and be thou ravished
<07686> (8799)

always
<08548>

with her love
<0160>_.

{satisfy...: Heb. water thee} {be thou...: Heb. err thou always in her love}

5:20

And why wilt thou, my son
<01121>_,

be ravished
<07686> (8799)

with a strange woman
<02114> (8801)_,

and embrace
<02263> (8762)

the bosom
<02436>

of a stranger
<05237>_?

Proverbs 6:24

6:24

To keep
<08104> (8800)

thee from the evil
<07451>

woman
<0802>_,

from the flattery
<02513>

of the tongue
<03956>

of a strange woman
<05237>_.

{of the...: or, of the strange tongue}

Proverbs 7:5-23

7:5

That they may keep
<08104> (8800)

thee from the strange
<02114> (8801)

woman
<0802>_,

from the stranger
<05237>

[which] flattereth
<02505> (8689)

with her words
<0561>_.

7:6

For at the window
<02474>

of my house
<01004>

I looked
<08259> (8738)

through my casement
<0822>_,

7:7

And beheld
<07200> (8799)

among the simple ones
<06612>_,

I discerned
<0995> (8799)

among the youths
<01121>_,

a young man
<05288>

void
<02638>

of understanding
<03820>_,

{the youths: Heb. the sons}

7:8

Passing through
<05674> (8802)

the street
<07784>

near
<0681>

her corner
<06434>_;

and he went
<06805> (8799)

the way
<01870>

to her house
<01004>_,

7:9

In the twilight
<05399>_,

in the evening
<03117> <06153>_,

in the black
<0380>

and dark
<0653>

night
<03915>_:

{in the evening: Heb. in the evening of days}

7:10

And, behold, there met
<07125> (8800)

him a woman
<0802>

[with] the attire
<07897>

of an harlot
<02181> (8802)_,

and subtil
<05341> (8803)

of heart
<03820>_.

7:11

(She [is] loud
<01993> (8802)

and stubborn
<05637> (8802)_;

her feet
<07272>

abide
<07931> (8799)

not in her house
<01004>_:

7:12

Now
<06471>

[is she] without
<02351>_,

now
<06471>

in the streets
<07339>_,

and lieth in wait
<0693> (8799)

at
<0681>

every corner
<06438>.)

7:13

So she caught
<02388> (8689)

him, and kissed
<05401> (8804)

him, [and] with an impudent
<05810> (8689)

face
<06440>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, {with...: Heb. she strengthened her face and said}

7:14

[I have] peace
<08002>

offerings
<02077>

with me; this day
<03117>

have I payed
<07999> (8765)

my vows
<05088>_.

{I have...: Heb. Peace offerings are upon me}

7:15

Therefore came I forth
<03318> (8804)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

thee, diligently to seek
<07836> (8763)

thy face
<06440>_,

and I have found
<04672> (8799)

thee.

7:16

I have decked
<07234> (8804)

my bed
<06210>

with coverings
<04765>

of tapestry, with carved
<02405>

[works], with fine linen
<0330>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

7:17

I have perfumed
<05130> (8804)

my bed
<04904>

with myrrh
<04753>_,

aloes
<0174>_,

and cinnamon
<07076>_.

7:18

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

let us take our fill
<07301> (8799)

of love
<01730>

until the morning
<01242>_:

let us solace
<05965> (8691)

ourselves with loves
<0159>_.

7:19

For the goodman
<0376>

[is] not at home
<01004>_,

he is gone
<01980> (8804)

a long
<07350>

journey
<01870>_:

7:20

He hath taken
<03947> (8804)

a bag
<06872>

of money
<03701>

with him
<03027>_,

[and] will come
<0935> (8799)

home
<01004>

at the day
<03117>

appointed
<03677>_.

{with...: Heb. in his hand} {the day...: or, the new moon}

7:21

With her much
<07230>

fair speech
<03948>

she caused him to yield
<05186> (8689)_,

with the flattering
<02506>

of her lips
<08193>

she forced
<05080> (8686)

him.

7:22

He goeth
<01980> (8802)

after
<0310>

her straightway
<06597>_,

as an ox
<07794>

goeth
<0935> (8799)

to the slaughter
<02874>_,

or as a fool
<0191>

to the correction
<04148>

of the stocks
<05914>_;

{straightway: Heb. suddenly}

7:23

Till a dart
<02671>

strike
<06398> (8762)

through his liver
<03516>_;

as a bird
<06833>

hasteth
<04116> (8763)

to the snare
<06341>_,

and knoweth
<03045> (8804)

not that it [is] for his life
<05315>_.

Proverbs 22:14

22:14

The mouth
<06310>

of strange women
<02114> (8801)

[is] a deep
<06013>

pit
<07745>_:

he that is abhorred
<02194> (8803)

of the LORD
<03068>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

therein.

Proverbs 23:27

23:27

For a whore
<02181> (8802)

[is] a deep
<06013>

ditch
<07745>_;

and a strange woman
<05237>

[is] a narrow
<06862>

pit
<0875>_.

Genesis 39:3-12

39:3

And his master
<0113>

saw
<07200> (8799)

that the LORD
<03068>

[was] with him, and that the LORD
<03068>

made all that he did
<06213> (8802)

to prosper
<06743> (8688)

in his hand
<03027>_.

39:4

And Joseph
<03130>

found
<04672> (8799)

grace
<02580>

in his sight
<05869>_,

and he served
<08334> (8762)

him: and he made him overseer
<06485> (8686)

over his house
<01004>_,

and all [that] he had
<03426>

he put
<05414> (8804)

into his hand
<03027>_.

39:5

And it came to pass from the time
<0227>

[that] he had made him overseer
<06485> (8689)

in his house
<01004>_,

and over all that he had
<03426>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

the Egyptian's
<04713>

house
<01004>

for Joseph's
<03130>

sake
<01558>_;

and the blessing
<01293>

of the LORD
<03068>

was upon all that he had
<03426>

in the house
<01004>_,

and in the field
<07704>_.

39:6

And he left
<05800> (8799)

all that he had in Joseph's
<03130>

hand
<03027>_;

and he knew
<03045> (8804)

not ought
<03972>

he had, save
<0518>

the bread
<03899>

which he did eat
<0398> (8802)_.

And Joseph
<03130>

was [a] goodly
<08389>

[person], and well
<03303>

favoured
<04758>_.

39:7

And it came to pass after
<0310>

these things
<01697>_,

that his master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>

cast
<05375> (8799)

her eyes
<05869>

upon Joseph
<03130>_;

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Lie
<07901> (8798)

with me.

39:8

But he refused
<03985> (8762)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto his master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>_,

Behold, my master
<0113>

wotteth
<03045> (8804)

not what [is] with me in the house
<01004>_,

and he hath committed
<05414> (8804)

all that he hath
<03426>

to my hand
<03027>_;

39:9

[There is] none greater
<01419>

in this house
<01004>

than I; neither
<03808>

hath he kept back
<02820> (8804)

any thing
<03972>

from me but thee, because
<0834>

thou
<0859>

[art] his wife
<0802>_:

how then can I do
<06213> (8799)

this great
<01419>

wickedness
<07451>_,

and sin
<02398> (8804)

against God
<0430>_?

39:10

And it came to pass, as she spake
<01696> (8763)

to Joseph
<03130>

day
<03117>

by day
<03117>_,

that he hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto her, to lie
<07901> (8800)

by her
<0681>_,

[or] to be with her.

39:11

And it came to pass about this time
<03117>_,

that [Joseph] went
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

to do
<06213> (8800)

his business
<04399>_;

and [there was] none of the men
<0376> <0582>

of the house
<01004>

there within.

39:12

And she caught
<08610> (8799)

him by his garment
<0899>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Lie
<07901> (8798)

with me: and he left
<05800> (8799)

his garment
<0899>

in her hand
<03027>_,

and fled
<05127> (8799)_,

and got
<03318> (8799)

him out
<02351>_.

Nehemiah 13:26-27

13:26

Did not Solomon
<08010>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

sin
<02398> (8804)

by these things? yet among many
<07227>

nations
<01471>

was there no king
<04428>

like him, who was beloved
<0157> (8803)

of his God
<0430>_,

and God
<0430>

made
<05414> (8799)

him king
<04428>

over all Israel
<03478>_:

nevertheless even him
<01571>

did outlandish
<05237>

women
<0802>

cause to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

13:27

Shall we then hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto you to do
<06213> (8800)

all this great
<01419>

evil
<07451>_,

to transgress
<04603> (8800)

against our God
<0430>

in marrying
<03427> (8687)

strange
<05237>

wives
<0802>_?

Ecclesiastes 7:26

7:26

And I find
<04672> (8802)

more bitter
<04751>

than death
<04194>

the woman
<0802>_,

whose heart
<03820>

[is] snares
<04685>

and nets
<02764>_,

[and] her hands
<03027>

[as] bands
<0612>_:

whoso pleaseth
<02896> <06440>

God
<0430>

shall escape
<04422> (8735)

from her; but the sinner
<02398> (8802)

shall be taken
<03920> (8735)

by her. {whoso...: Heb. he that is good before God}
