New King James Version

Proverbs 7:3-11 New King James Version (NKJV)

3. Bind them on your fingers;Write them on the tablet of your heart.

4. Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”And call understanding your nearest kin,

5. That they may keep you from the immoral woman,From the seductress who flatters with her words.

6. For at the window of my houseI looked through my lattice,

7. And saw among the simple,I perceived among the youths,A young man devoid of understanding,

8. Passing along the street near her corner;And he took the path to her house

9. In the twilight, in the evening,In the black and dark night.

10. And there a woman met him,With the attire of a harlot, and a crafty heart.

11. She was loud and rebellious,Her feet would not stay at home.
