{Proverbs 7:1} My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:2} Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:3} Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:4} Say unto wisdom, Thou [art] my sister; and call understanding [thy] kinswoman: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:5} That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger [which] flattereth with her words. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:6} For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:7} And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:8} Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:9} In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:10} And, behold, there met him a woman [with] the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:11} (She [is] loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:12} Now [is she] without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:13} So she caught him, and kissed him, [and] with an impudent face said unto him, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:14} [I have] peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:15} Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:16} I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved [works,] with fine linen of Egypt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:17} I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:18} Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:19} For the goodman [is] not at home, he is gone a long journey: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:20} He hath taken a bag of money with him, [and] will come home at the day appointed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:21} With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:22} He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:23} Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it [is] for his life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:24} Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:25} Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:26} For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong [men] have been slain by her. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Proverbs 7:27} Her house [is] the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
