Call understanding your relative,
that they may keep you from the strange woman, Pro 2:16Pro 6:24Pro 5:3

For at the window of my house, Gen 26:8Jdg 5:282Sa 6:16
I looked out through my lattice.
I saw among the simple ones. Pro 6:32Pro 1:22Jer 4:22Mat 15:16Pro 1:32Pro 1:4Pro 10:13Pro 8:5
I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding,
passing through the street near her corner, 1Co 6:182Sa 11:2-32Ti 2:22Jdg 16:1Jud 1:23Pro 4:14-15Pro 5:8Pro 7:12
he went the way to her house,
in the twilight, in the evening of the day, Job 24:13-15Rom 13:12-14Eph 5:11Gen 39:11Exo 12:6
in the middle of the night and in the darkness.
Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute, 1Ti 2:92Co 11:2-3Isa 3:16-242Ki 9:30Jer 4:302Ki 9:22Gen 38:14-15Isa 23:16
and with crafty intent.
She is loud and defiant. Pro 9:13Tit 2:51Ti 5:13-14Pro 31:10-31Gen 18:9Pro 25:24Pro 27:14-15
Her feet don’t stay in her house.
Now she is in the streets, now in the squares, Pro 23:28Pro 9:14Rev 18:3Ezk 16:24-25Ezk 16:31Jer 2:20Jer 2:33Jer 2:36
and lurking at every corner.
So she caught him, and kissed him. Gen 39:12Num 25:6-8Ezk 16:33Ezk 2:4Ezk 2:6Ezk 3:7-9Gen 39:7Isa 50:7
With an impudent face she said to him:
“Sacrifices of peace offerings are with me. Pro 21:27Lev 7:11Deu 12:6-7Jhn 18:28Pro 15:8Pro 17:11Ki 21:9-102Sa 15:7-9
Today I have paid my vows.
Therefore I came out to meet you,
to diligently seek your face,
and I have found you.
I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, Isa 19:9Ezk 27:71Ki 10:28Pro 31:22Rev 2:22Sng 3:7-10Sng 1:16
with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.
I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Psa 45:8Isa 57:7-9Exo 30:23Sng 3:6Sng 4:13-14
Come, let’s take our fill of loving until the morning.
Let’s solace ourselves with loving.
For my husband isn’t at home. Luk 12:45-46Mat 20:11Luk 12:39Mat 24:43Mat 24:48Mrk 13:34-36
He has gone on a long journey.
He has taken a bag of money with him. 2Ch 2:4
He will come home at the full moon.”
With persuasive words, she led him astray. Pro 5:3Pro 7:52Ki 4:8Luk 24:29Psa 12:22Co 5:14Jdg 16:15-17Pro 6:24
With the flattering of her lips, she seduced him.
He followed her immediately, Job 13:27Act 14:13Act 16:24Jer 20:2
as an ox goes to the slaughter,
as a fool stepping into a noose.
Until an arrow strikes through his liver, Ecc 9:12Pro 9:18Num 25:8-9Pro 1:17
as a bird hurries to the snare,
and doesn’t know that it will cost his life.
Now therefore, sons, listen to me. Pro 5:7Pro 4:11Jn 2:1Gal 4:19Pro 8:32-331Co 4:14-15
Pay attention to the words of my mouth.
Don’t let your heart turn to her ways. Pro 5:8Isa 53:6Pro 6:25Mat 5:28Pro 23:31-33Pro 4:14-15Pro 5:23Psa 119:176

Yes, all her slain are a mighty army.
Her house is the way to Sheol, 1 Pro 5:5Pro 9:18Pro 2:18-19Rev 22:15Ecc 7:26
going down to the rooms of death.
