At the Window of My House — Proverbs 7:6–12
For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice;
And I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,
Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,
In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.
And I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,
Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,
In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.
And, behold, there met him a woman With the attire of a harlot, and wily of heart.
(She is clamorous and wilful; Her feet abide not in her house:
Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lieth in wait at every corner.)
(She is clamorous and wilful; Her feet abide not in her house:
Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lieth in wait at every corner.)
