Warning Against the Adulteress

|Provérbios 7:1| ^a My son, keep my words and ^b treasure up my commandments with you;

|Provérbios 7:2| ^c keep my commandments and live; keep my teaching as ^d the apple of your eye;

|Provérbios 7:3| ^e bind them on your fingers; ^f write them on the tablet of your heart.

|Provérbios 7:4| Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,” and call insight your intimate friend,

|Provérbios 7:5| to keep you from ^g the forbidden ¹ woman, from ^h the adulteress ² with her smooth words.

|Provérbios 7:6| For at ⁱ the window of my house I have looked out through my lattice,

|Provérbios 7:7| and I have seen among ^j the simple, I have perceived among the youths, a young man ^k lacking sense,

|Provérbios 7:8| passing along the street ^l near her corner, taking the road to her house

|Provérbios 7:9| in ^m the twilight, in the evening, at ⁿ the time of night and darkness.

|Provérbios 7:10| And behold, the woman meets him, ^o dressed as a prostitute, wily of heart. ³
