Proverbs 7

Third Millennium Bible TMB

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 thine 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 harlot who flattereth with her words.

6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,

7 and I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youth, 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, in the black and dark night.

10 And behold, there met him a woman with the attire of a harlot and subtle of heart.

11 (She is loud and stubborn, her feet abide not in her house;

12 now is she outside, now in the streets and lieth in wait at every corner.)

13 So she caught him and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him:

14 "I have peace offerings with me; this day have I paid my vows.

15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently seeking thy face, and I have found thee.

16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen 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 love.

19 For the master is not at home; he is gone on a long journey.

20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed."

21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield; with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,

23 until a dart strike through his liver, as a bird hasteneth to the snare and knoweth not that it is for his life.

24 Hearken unto me now, therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.

25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways; go not astray in her paths.

26 For she hath cast down many wounded; yea, many strong men have been slain by her.

27 Her house is the way to hell, leading down to the chambers of death.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 fili mi custodi sermones meos et praecepta mea reconde tibi

2 serva mandata mea et vives et legem meam quasi pupillam oculi tui

3 liga eam in digitis tuis scribe illam in tabulis cordis tui

4 dic sapientiae soror mea es et prudentiam voca amicam tuam

5 ut custodiat te a muliere extranea et ab aliena quae verba sua dulcia facit

6 de fenestra enim domus meae per cancellos prospexi

7 et video parvulos considero vecordem iuvenem

8 qui transit in platea iuxta angulum et propter viam domus illius graditur

9 in obscuro advesperascente die in noctis tenebris et caligine

10 et ecce mulier occurrit illi ornatu meretricio praeparata ad capiendas animas garrula et vaga

11 quietis inpatiens nec valens in domo consistere pedibus suis

12 nunc foris nunc in plateis nunc iuxta angulos insidians

13 adprehensumque deosculatur iuvenem et procaci vultu blanditur dicens

14 victimas pro salute debui hodie reddidi vota mea

15 idcirco egressa sum in occursum tuum desiderans te videre et repperi

16 intexui funibus lectum meum stravi tapetibus pictis ex Aegypto

17 aspersi cubile meum murra et aloe et cinnamomo

18 veni inebriemur uberibus donec inlucescat dies et fruamur cupitis amplexibus

19 non est enim vir in domo sua abiit via longissima

20 sacculum pecuniae secum tulit in die plenae lunae reversurus est domum suam

21 inretivit eum multis sermonibus et blanditiis labiorum protraxit illum

22 statim eam sequitur quasi bos ductus ad victimam et quasi agnus lasciviens et ignorans quod ad vincula stultus trahatur

23 donec transfigat sagitta iecur eius velut si avis festinet ad laqueum et nescit quia de periculo animae illius agitur

24 nunc ergo fili audi me et adtende verba oris mei

25 ne abstrahatur in viis illius mens tua neque decipiaris semitis eius

26 multos enim vulneratos deiecit et fortissimi quique interfecti sunt ab ea

27 viae inferi domus eius penetrantes interiora mortis
