(American Standard Version)

  • 1 My son, keep my words, And lay up my commandments with thee.
  • 2 Keep my commandments and live; And my law as the apple of thine eye.
  • 3 Bind them upon thy fingers; Write them upon the tablet of thy heart.
  • 4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; And call understanding thy kinswoman:
  • 5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, From the foreigner that flattereth with her words.
  • 6 For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice;
  • 7 And I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,
  • 8 Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,
  • 9 In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.
  • 10 And, behold, there met him a woman With the attire of a harlot, and wily of heart.
  • 11 (She is clamorous and wilful; Her feet abide not in her house:
  • 12 Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lieth in wait at every corner.)
  • 13 So she caught him, and kissed him, And with an impudent face she said unto him:
  • 14 Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me; This day have I paid my vows.
  • 15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, Diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
  • 16 I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, With striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.
  • 17 I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
  • 18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; Let us solace ourselves with loves.
  • 19 For the man is not at home; He is gone a long journey:
  • 20 He hath taken a bag of money with him; He will come home at the full moon.
  • 21 With her much fair speech she causeth him to yield; With the flattering of her lips she forceth him along.
  • 22 He goeth after her straightway, As an ox goeth to the slaughter, Or as one in fetters to the correction of the fool;
  • 23 Till an arrow strike through his liver; As a bird hasteth to the snare, And knoweth not that it is for his life.
  • 24 Now therefore, my sons, hearken unto me, And attend to the words of my mouth.
  • 25 Let not thy heart decline to her ways; Go not astray in her paths.
  • 26 For she hath cast down many wounded: Yea, all her slain are a mighty host.
  • 27 Her house is the way to Sheol, Going down to the chambers of death.
