Proverbs 7:7-24

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>_.

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

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

and attend
<07181> (8685)

to the words
<0561>

of my mouth
<06310>_.

me.

11:9

Rejoice
<08055> (8798)_,

O young man
<0970>_,

in thy youth
<03208>_;

and let thy heart
<03820>

cheer
<02895> (8686)

thee in the days
<03117>

of thy youth
<0979>_,

and walk

in the ways
<01870>

of thine heart
<03820>_,

and in the sight

thou, that for all these [things] God
<0430>

will bring

thee into judgment

from thy heart
<03820>_,

and put away

evil
<07451>

from thy flesh
<01320>_:

not, nor the years

draw nigh

I have no pleasure
<02656>

in them;

return
<07725> (8804)

after
<0310>

the rain
<01653>_:

<01933> (8802)

man
<0120>

of all his labour
<05999>_,

under the sun
