Proverbs 7:11-12

7:11 (She is loud and rebellious,

she ¹  does not remain ²  at home –

7:12 at one time outside, at another ³  in the wide plazas,

and by every corner she lies in wait.)

[7:11]  ¹ tn Heb “her feet.” This is a synecdoche, a part for the whole; the point is that she never stays home, but is out and about all the time.

[7:11]  ² tn Heb “dwell” or “settle”; NAB “her feet cannot rest.”

[7:12]  ³ tn The repetition of the noun “time, step,” usually translated “now, this time,” signifies here “at one time…at another time” (BDB 822 s.v. פַּעַם 3.e).
