Proverbs 7:1-18

My son
<01121>_,

keep
<08104> (8798)

my words
<0561>_,

and lay up
<06845> (8799)

my commandments
<04687>

with thee.

Keep
<08104> (8798)

my commandments
<04687>_,

and live
<02421> (8798)_;

and my law
<08451>

as the apple
<0380>

of thine eye
<05869>_.

Bind
<07194> (8798)

them upon thy fingers
<0676>_,

write
<03789> (8798)

them upon the table
<03871>

of thine heart
<03820>_.

Say
<0559> (8798)

unto wisdom
<02451>_,

Thou [art] my sister
<0269>_;

and call
<07121> (8799)

understanding
<0998>

[thy] kinswoman
<04129>_:

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>_.

For at the window
<02474>

of my house
<01004>

I looked
<08259> (8738)

through my casement
<0822>_,

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}

Passing through
<05674> (8802)

the street
<07784>

near
<0681>

her corner
<06434>_;

and he went
<06805> (8799)

the way
<01870>

to her house
<01004>_,

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}

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>_.

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

and stubborn
<05637> (8802)_;

her feet
<07272>

abide
<07931> (8799)

not in her house
<01004>_:

Now
<06471>

[is she] without
<02351>_,

now
<06471>

in the streets
<07339>_,

and lieth in wait
<0693> (8799)

at
<0681>

every corner
<06438>.)

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}

[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}

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.

I have decked
<07234> (8804)

my bed
<06210>

with coverings
<04765>

of tapestry, with carved
<02405>

[works], with fine linen
<0330>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

I have perfumed
<05130> (8804)

my bed
<04904>

with myrrh
<04753>_,

aloes
<0174>_,

and cinnamon
<07076>_.

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>_.
