2keep my commandments, and thou shalt live; and keep my words as the pupils of thine eyes.
3And bind them on thy fingers, and write them on the table of thine heart.
4Say that wisdom is thy sister, and gain prudence as an acquaintance for thyself;
5that she may keep thee from the strange and wicked woman, if she should assail thee with flattering words.
6For she looks from a window out of her house into the streets, at one whom she may see of the senseless ones, a young man void of understanding,
7passing by the corner in the passages near her house,
8and speaking, in the dark of the evening,
9when there happens to be the stillness of night and of darkness:
10and the woman meets him having the appearance of a harlot, that causes the hearts of young men to flutter.
11And she is fickle, and debauched, and her feet abide not at home.
12For at one time she wanders without, and at another time she lies in wait in the streets, at every corner.
13Then she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said to him,
14I have a peace-offering; to-day I pay my vows:
15therefore I came forth to meet thee, desiring thy face; and I have found thee.
