Proverbs 7:13-23

CAB(i) 13 Then she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said to him, 14 I have a peace offering; today I pay my vows: 15 therefore I came forth to meet you, desiring your face; and I have found you. 16 I have spread my bed with sheets, and I have covered it with double tapestry from Egypt. 17 I have sprinkled my couch with saffron, and my house with cinnamon. 18 Come, and let us enjoy love until the morning; come, and let us embrace in love. 19 For my husband is not at home, and has gone on a long journey, 20 having taken in his hand a bundle of money: after many days he will return to his house. 21 So with much conversation she prevailed on him to go astray, and with the snares of her lips forced him from the right path. 22 And he followed her, being gently led on, as that of an ox led to the slaughter, and as a dog to bonds, or as a deer shot in the liver with an arrow: 23 and he hastens as a bird into a snare, not knowing that he is running for his life.
