Warning against the adulterous woman
7 My son, put into practice my words
and treasure my commandments.
2 Comply with my commands, and you will live;
Take care of my teachings as the apple of your eyes.
3 Carry them tied on your fingers;
write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Say to wisdom: "You are my sister",
and to intelligence: "You are my blood."
5 They will free you from the woman of others,
of the adulteress and her seductive words.
6 From the window of my house
I looked through the lattice.
7 I started to see the inexperienced,
and among the young people I observed
one of them lacked judgment.
8 He crossed the street, came to the corner,
and he went to that woman's house.
9 The afternoon was falling. The day was coming to an end.
The shadows of the night advanced.
10 Suddenly the woman came out to meet him,
with all the appearance of a prostitute
and with overlapping intentions.
11 (As it is scandalous and shameless,
they never find their feet in their house.
12 Sometimes in the streets, sometimes in the squares,
he is always lurking in every corner).
13 He took hold of his neck, kissed him,
and with all boldness said to him:
14 «I have communion sacrifices in my house,
because today I have fulfilled my vows.
15 That is why I have come to meet you;
I was looking for you, and I've found you!
16 On the bed I have laid
multicolored Egyptian linens.
17 I have perfumed my bed
with aroma of myrrh, aloe and cinnamon.
18 Come, let us drink to the bottom the cup of love;
Let's enjoy love until dawn!
19 My husband is not home,
Well, he has embarked on a long journey.
20 He has taken the money bag with him,
and will not return until the day of the full moon. "
21 With persuasive words he convinced him;
with flattery of his lips seduced him.
22 And he immediately went after her,
like the ox that goes to the slaughterhouse;
like the deer that falls into the trap,
23 until an arrow opens the entrails;
like the bird that is thrown against the net,
Without knowing that his life is going on.
24 So, my son, listen to me;
pay attention to my words.
25 Do not turn your heart to its paths,
Do not get lost in their ways,
26 For many have died for their sake;
his victims have been innumerable.
27 His house takes right to the tomb;
Leads to the realm of death!
