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.
12. At times she was outside, at times in the open square,Lurking at every corner.
13. So she caught him and kissed him;With an impudent face she said to him:
14. “I have peace offerings with me;Today I have paid my vows.
15. So I came out to meet you,Diligently to seek your face,And I have found you.
16. I have spread my bed with tapestry,Colored coverings of Egyptian linen.
17. I have perfumed my bedWith myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
